this letter is himself
inclined to deal with and use very large quantities and high
accelerations and velocities in his stories. We are going to let your

himself between the upper and lower millstones represented by an author
and his critic. But you certainly make amends for your criticism by what
you say about the merit of "The Skylark Stories." We hope to hear from
Dr. Smith.--EDITOR.)
