Text Any textual data included in the document […] I am not a business woman, and cannot weigh the value of my words – as if they were to be tried in a court of justice – the extract you send me from my letter – certainly would bear the interpretation you put upon it – and yet I never meant it to apply to making a contract with any publisher – as you must have seen by my letter to you in N.Y. begging you not to conclude until I could communicate with the Cushmans – I have tried to explain to you what I meant about keeping Mr. C. out of the matter. I did write to keep him out – I did fear his brusquereie and inexperience. but it was a thing to be managed – not declared openly – for my relations with him did not permit him to be ignored – he is my trustee – as well as the Trustee of the Cushman estate, and has been extremely kind to me ever since his Aunt’s death: - so your letter to him frightened me – in the next, you informed him very bluntly indeed that I intended he should be kept outside, and lustly[?] you say that you go upon my information with regard to materials – when I have tried my best to make you understand – that I don’t ever know what materials there are + I have never yet seen them and what I possess is very meagre indeed. – I send you back this letter and I think you will see and reading it over – that it was rash – and ill-aclused – for in this matter of the look you could not disconnect yourself from Miss Cushma’s nearest relative, or give him +++ of offence – without finding you had placed a great obstacle in your own way. If I had mailed a day or two before writing to ask you to annul the contract –I should propbaby have begged you to postpone [underlined] rathr [sic!] than annul it; and to allow myself a little more time to see my way, a little time to feel better – and to lift from my shoulders some heavy pressures which weigh me down just now – but from your just receiver – I suppose it is too late for that – However I have myself written to-day to Mr. Osgood asking him for a bried delay – perhaps you will not feel inclined now to accept any sort of compromise.
