- Scope and Content:
- Ruskin mentions to Lupton that there is a "cheque for 10.10.0" in a copy of a book that he is sending him, and asks him to forward the check to Mr. Cousins. He also remarks that he has been "obliged to spoil another sketch in removing the Plymouth..." explaining that there has been a double sketch. He advises Lupton not to tire himself with the mezzotints, but nevertheless to finish "as soon as you conveniently can the two of sunsets." He says that he wants the sunsets because they are to be included "in the first volume," which he wants to publish on the first of January, and "must have the plates at least a fortnight before."
