Dear Dr. Williams:

The printing of THE DOG AND THE FEVER is now complete and we are today instructing the printer to ship the sheets to our binder. We hope that we may have the completed books by the end of the month, and will ship copies to you as soon as they are available.

Norman Holmes Pearson read the proof for you, as we understand was agreed. You may also be interested to know that the book has been designed by Alvin Eisenman. We hope that you will be pleased with the finished product!
