Dear Mr. de Laszlo,

I am quite agreeable to my portrait [3161] being included in the Exhibition of your work^[1] and I note you will collect it from this address on the 23rd instant, and I am giving instructions accordingly. As I am just leaving for Scotland would you kindly let the Secretary of the P. and O.S.N.Co. here know if the painting will be covered against fire, theft and damage during the time it is away from here.^[2]

Yours sincerely,
