There is also a page of 'Abbreviations to the Register'.) A few manuscript emendations. The covering letter is addressed to 'David', and is effusive in its offer of further assistance, the author urging 'David' to rewrite the piece as he sees fit. It is signed, faintly and undecipherably. The author writes in good, but not entirely idiomatic, English, and has gone to some trouble.

This opinion of Duhn ('the "Grand Old Man" of German Archaeology') was 'addressed to the Author a little before his death'.

Two pages, octavo. Good, with some creasing at head and foot. He has just returned from visiting his brother and sister-in-law at Liss, and will send his 'The Wood of Time' (1938). 'Since I wrote the poems it contains, poetry, like most of the other arts, has undergone a complete revolution; indeed began to undergo it before "The Wood of Time" was published.' Despite this he is pleased it 'did not fall entirely upon deaf ears. Since that time I have written several other things, but have really published nothing of the same nature.'
