Scope and content
Thanks Nora for her letter about Lord Rayleigh's recollections of 'the curtain incident', and remarks that it seems to come to very little as he describes it; believes that he probably has forgotten some of the details. Remembers that there are some documents at Cambridge - probably notes in pencil taken at the time - copies of which she has in her possession. Gives what she believes to be the address of Norman MacColl [one-time editor of the Athenaeum]. Reports that Austin tells her that he is a very nice man, and would be willing to help her in tracing Henry's articles, but that the present editor, Mr Rendall 'is a much less agreeable person'.
