Tolkien sends back the revised manuscript of Farmer Giles of Ham for publication. He has carefully gone through it, making alterations to improve both style and narrative. The author notes that the story was not written for children, though it may still amuse them.
He also asks for the book to be dedicated to C.H. Wilkinson, to whom he sends an inscribed copy on publication.
