If the book is to be such as I can be[?] in four months. I am willing to undertake it for $2500, and half of whatever royalties may come in after this sum has been [?] by then[?]. The $2500 to be paid to me upon the ratifying of this understanding. The materials on [?] to be sent to me here, and I will then engage to furnish[?] the complete copy for the book, 350pp on or before Oct. 1st 1902.

As [?] work, I will only [?] to bear in mind that I am cordially mistaken in it, and should more than plan to [?] help then. [?] Julian Hawthorne
