I am afraid my stay in any case is likely to be much shorter than I could wish it to be, as I am busy enough generally & like to be specially so after the holidays: I will write a day or two before the 13th & tell you exactly when I can come. I am, dear Mr. Woodall, yours faithfully, William Morris."
