Letter
Dear Sir
Do not disclose Judge Chitty's name. I have now his leave to reproduce this wonderful picture in my next article.
Yours truly
A Conan Doyle
NB : In alluding to Chitty in this present week you can say "Son of a Judge" but not that he is himself a distinguished lawyer, as that might be too near.
March 23.
