Please ask him to send me 2 proofs, and the M.S. [manuscript] — I will return him one proof corrected for Press — when I do this, may I ask him to work me off a dozen proofs of the slip, before he sets it up in pages with the rest of the ‘M.P.’ [Monthly Packet]? C L Dodgson”. The periodical published the short stories of Carroll that were ultimately compiled into his “A Tangled Tale” (1885).
