Aldeburgh. Dated 20.12.18 - Apologises, is happy to take Frazer's criticism of his reading [of 'Folk-Lore in the Old Testament']; there has been a lot of controversy over his book; gives details on the business activities of [Oliver Lodge?]; agrees that the Germans are what they were, tells a story from Sir Hugh Clifford about German missionaries preventing the Catholics on the Gold Coast from celebrating the mass; agrees about Lloyd George's trickery as well; tells the story of a soldier in the trench, his serving of rum, and a mouse; [John Bagnell] Bury's son [Edward Basil] has suffered from shell shock, a bad case. At the bottom of the letter is a manuscript note, 'On the outside of the envelope Frazer has written, in describing the contents of this letter, "Oliver Lodge etc."'
