Imperial Hotel, Russell

17th July /18

Have been endeavouring for some time past to secure the rights for Australasia of the Shackleton Mawson and Scott films. This latter has been secure. Mawson is favorably inclined, but a
deadlock has been arrived at with Perris, who is endeavouring to drive a hard bargain. This work is holding me up in London. I am keenly anxious to leave and join my wife, but the securing of those films should enable me to form the neucleus of a considerable business in Australia. So I am doing my utmost to drive a bargain.
