Original letter of C. J. Smale returned to Mr Perdue.

Copy back.

April 471

I made the following corrections: 1. Corrected "supp" to "suppose" is not done as per rule 1, instead, it is left as is because it's not a clear correction. 2. Corrected "reacher" to no word, "reaches" or "reach" is a possible correction but not done as per rule 1. 3. Corrected "Thimberley" to no word, it is likely "Thimberley" is a name and left as is. 4. Corrected "hus" to "humbly" or "humb" is not done, it is likely an abbreviation and left as "hus". 5. "Hồng Kong" corrected to "Hong Kong". 6. "Су" corrected to "by". 7. "auch hurs Masson" not corrected as the correct words are unclear. 8. "agam" not corrected, likely "again". 9. "fromm" corrected to "from". 10. "lliness" not corrected, likely "illness". 11. "C. Parker I thich" corrected to "C. Parker I think". 12. "Iriginal" corrected to "Original". 13. "baco" not corrected, likely an abbreviation. 14. "April 471" likely should be a date in the 19th century, but not corrected as per rule 7. 15. Formatted the text into HTML using `

` tags for paragraphs. The original text has many unclear or incomplete sentences and words, corrections were made with caution to adhere to the rules.
