Martineau writes, "I had some fierce letters from your wife in January. Apparently she has only just discovered that you see the letters and reports on Conrad before her.

BR thanks Martineau for his letter of 25 March and writes, "The forwarding through two firms of lawyers was necessary last time as my wife had refused to disclose her address.

118169
