May 8th

My dear Mahon

Of course I know nothing of Maguire, except for a letter or two I have had from him which showed sense: of course also I cannot answer his money question you & some of the others might do so: again as to the other questions, they would have to be considered by us in meeting; of course you wouldn't hurry us in going.

I think we must put off consideration till next Monday: I mean to say we can't answer him; he must be considered a candidate subject to certain conditions

Yours fraternally

William Morris
