Dear Sir,

Mr. de Laszlo will telephone you to-morrow morning to know if there is still time to forward the photographs for Mr. J.A. McKay.^[1] He also hopes you received the photographs he sent you for Miss Evans and they were handed over to her.^[2]

He would like to know when he can expect you to dine here and settle all outstanding questions. He would like you to kindly bring with you one set of enlarged photographs of the whole exhibition^[3] and three sets of the smaller size. Mr. Remy^[4] has been here to-day and he has arranged with him about the removal of the pictures.

Will you please communicate with Viscount Astor about the removal of his picture [2608] and will you please hand over those of the Baroness Robert de Rothschild and her son [4625][4893] to Knoedlers as Mr. de Laszlo understood they were delivered by them. He understands also the picture of the Queen of Roumania [3200] you will still keep with you for the purpose of reproduction. The portrait of Mrs. Leyland [9975] came well packed; kindly return to the same address and insure it for £300, and please send a wire to Mrs. Leyland by what train the picture will arrive. Lady Runciman [10020] [leaves?] for the time being with you, and is writing to her to dispose of same.^[5] The portrait of Miss Veronica Calvocoressi [2307] came also direct from Liverpool and will you please have this well packed and delivered and insure it for £400.
