Summary
Parker Woodward offers to subscribe £10 if others would raise the rest of the money needed to send J.E. Morgan to London to announce his Baconian discoveries. If he [Woodward?] proves to be reliable, then Howard hopes Folger will help to bring him to New York where the Bacon Society can advise him further. If Folger hears from Howard by cable with the code word "Arcadia," he will know that the manuscripts are available for perusal before others see them. The last paragraph urges Folger to help culturally unite China and America, which would, in turn, "increase your power of helping them to agree on a harmonious policy in China."
