This note (which appears to be a draft) contains a summary by Perkins of De Quincey's 1853 January 8 letter, described as purchased from Dawson's Book Shop in February 1924, but has no transcription of that letter.
De Quincey writes to a publisher [J. T. Fields?] regarding revisions he has made in his previously published work for the purpose of publishing a new edition of those collected works in England.
