DescriptionAfter their conversation Young understood he was to write to [John Hilton] Grace, to tell him that Larmor was willing to guarantee him £2 per week for five months on the understanding that he would work on a new edition of their book. Young wrote immediately and kept a note of the form of words he used in making the offer. Young is willing to send this £2, and had a letter from Grace three days ago. He thinks that Grace is beginning to collect himself.
