Elder Ward has sold the Stars Bound for 3/6 & 4/ the
cvenants Bound are sold for 3/6 & all publications are
cheeper in England than in America & when they come to
see 9/ charge for the Times & Seasons ^unbound^ it frightens them
& as you allow for sale evry 10^th Vol to agents I have
thought if you would allow them to be sold for 8/ I
would throw in my own trouble & try to get agents
that sell in the conferences & churches ^to^ do the same which
would mostly make up the loss. I wish you to informe
me as soon as you get this after considering all these
things what you are willing to do whether you are willing
to have them sold at 8/ or not if you require 9/ per Vol
for them I think it will take many years to dispose of
them for they have now been here over two years & ownly
£ 3,3,0 worth have been sold while the expenses & Duty
has been £ with the £ 5, sent you £22,13,9. If it was
my care property I would far prefer to sell them at 8/
or even some less than to have them lie on hand as they
probably would at 9/ but when you come to consider
all these things if you say hold on to them at 9/ I
will do so. I will do by them as well as I would if
they were my own. I hope Br Taylor will not think
that I am wishing to dictate him concerning his property
But I have done as I would wish to be done by in
making these statements. Their has ownly one or two
volumes of the fifth Vol been sold in consequence of their not
