dear Mr Hipkins / If Saturday morning will / be convenient for your foreman / to call I should be more free / then than on any other day / - all the time I am shamefully / conscious of the trouble I am / giving - I will make it as little / as I can, and be as little exacting / as possible. And I wish / every sort of success to your / daughter's picture. I wish that / she would let me help her with / my poor advice if ever she has / occasion in her work - the / distance is nothing and the trouble / less and possibly I might help her. / I like criticism when my work is half / way through as I hate it when / it is finished. / Yoursvery truly / E Burne-Jones
