ABSTRACT
Will you ask M. to let me know exactly what she thinks this illumination ought to cost? Neither can I nor will I fix the price. I cannot, because price is a question that I do not understand. I do not know what ought to regulate it. Whether the trouble of the producer, the means of the consumer or purchaser; why one sort of work (usually the most agreeable) is paid a higher rate than another that I do not like.
