    Dear Sir,
    Thank you very much for sending the small sketch from your collection of Cotmans. It is undoubtedey a sketch for the picture, and as such of great interest to us. By all means call in on Thursday to compare the two.
    I will return the sketch whenever you wish for it, but should like to keep it a little while longer.
    Yours faithfully,
    Oliver Brown & Phillips
