Dear Sir,
I have been informed that short stories find a ready market with you — I therefore send one "The Great Brown-Pericord Motor" which may perhaps suit you.
I am the author of two shilling books "A Study in Scarlet" and "The Mystery of Cloomber" which both had very good sales. I enclose press opinions of the former. Longmans have just brought out a 6/ book of mine "Micah Clarke" which, judging by the press noticces, is likely to be even more successful than the smaller ones.
Yours faithfully
- A. Conan Doyle, M.D.
