TitleLetter from John Murray to William Porden, relating to sales of Eleanor Anne Porden's poem "The Veils"
Date[1815]
DescriptionHe assures him he has paid every attention to the "Veils", using every influence with the book sellers, by which means he has sold more than 100 copies; he will send the account on Tuesday; they are proceeding with the advertisements, and it is no evil that they were not all fired off at once. He is disappointed at not seeing him and Miss Porden today, but he was in another part of town when he heard.
