One ALS, one TLS and one ANS, each of the three with a different letterhead of Via Della Costa di Serretto 17, San Martino d'Albaro, Genova 10, Italy. ALS: 23 July 1926. 'Gerard Hopkins tells me I am to send you the enclosed review of Waxman's Antonie & the theatre Libre. So here it is - faults & all. | If you want to omit the page about G B S from X to X by all means do so - but kindly not have it changed any where else.' Postscript reads: 'Its quite out of order I know to add this P.S. but will you please remember me to your wife who I knew when she was Sylvia Dryhurst - I remember she was very critical of me, but helped to make Hampstead even more charming a place than it always was & will be'. ANS: Also 23 July 1926: He forgot to say in the letter that 'first serial use would be £10'. TLS: 3 September 1934. Asking if he can review Halcott Glover's Dead Man's House: 'I ask this only on condition that you were not intending to write about it yourself - because I wouldn't rob Glover of that for anything. But if you are not, I should like to do it, because Glover is a dear good fellow and a fine writer, and I am very fond of him. | Incidentally, he's on his back in Bart's Hospital at the moment - pneumonia with complications.' Postscript reads: 'I'll take anything you like for the review, from 10/6 upwards . [the following in autograph] . . so dont bother the blokes in the office for the usual £250.'
