G. and Lilly Frazer's movements in Rome: places visited, and people seen, including [Giacomo] Boni, Wickham Steed and Madame [Clémence] Rose, Professor and Mrs [William] James, R. A. Neil, and A. E. Shipley. J. G. Frazer makes notes from a meeting on 16 Jan. with Miss Roma Lister, who gathered Italian folklore from peasants, and mentions her colleague C. G. Leland. On 19 Jan. he makes notes from a meeting with Dr [F. H.?] Burton-Brown, who lived amongst the Naga tribes in Assam. On 31 Jan. he describes an expedition to Nemi. On 27 Feb. he leaves Rome for Perugia. At the back of the volume are 2 1/2 pages of a bibliography of anthropological works, and two page list of 'Books Lent' from 1894-1905, to F. M Cornford, W. Ridgeway, A. B. Cook, W. H. D. Rouse, Miss [Aelfrida?] Tillyard, S. A. Cook, A. A. Bevan, and Prof. C. Bendall. This is followed by a short list of 'Ovid. Books to be Kept, Sept. 1928'.

Woodcote, Godalming - Has no authority in the financial matter she alludes to; it is up to Dr Loeb to decide on any further payment; as to any 'apparent negligence' he notes that he is 80, and has to deal with an invalid wife and daughter, the Loeb Library, the County Council, the Chairmanship of a Company, The Chairmanship of a Local Election Authority, and feels on the edge of a breakdown; as to not acknowledging a copy of the 'Fasti' [sent him], he thought it was sent from Macmillan to the Loeb Classical Library and not himself, and he had only just discovered the slip of paper with Frazer's most kind words; as to anything that could be done to mark the event [of publication?] he could not organise anything but will ask Rouse.

St. Keyne's, Cambridge. Dated 31 May, 1913 - Cannot write a review of the Loeb Library, they are publishing volumes too fast, and besides, he is not known in America, says not to worry about American criticism, they are 'a fearful and wonderful people', is always tempted to check to see if they have tails, and advises him to 'throw the whole crew of them overboard and sail the ship without them.'

(Address for the present) St. Bernard's, Caldie Road, West Kirby, Cheshire. Dated 17th October, 1918 - Explains the meaning of his previous letter, did not mean to offer to translate any or all of the authors, but was curious if any were spoken for, but cannot 'work in harness', likes to choose his own projects; knows he must be busy with the Tercentenary [for the Perse School].

Hotel Lutetia, Paris. Dated 8 January, 1920 - Discusses editorial decisions relating to the Apollodorus, abridging book titles, following traditional English spelling of Greek words; Lilly has been seriously ill and is still weak, but appreciated his letter about Speech Day at the [Perse] School; admires the Loeb Library, but criticises the Theocritus translation [by J. M. Edmonds]; sends their regards to [Léon] Chouville and [Louis] von Glehn.

Westend-Berlin, Eichenallée 12 - Thanks him for his letter, discusses Osiris, remains sceptical with respect to the conclusion that the same activities should have the same content; has written [W. H. D.] Rouse to say he cannot take on any more responsibilities; is sorry Frazer has been in Berlin and he has not been able to extend hospitality, hopes to see him at the Historical Congress of 1908.

Drumore, Blairgowrie, N.B. Dated July 19, 1912 - Comments on Frazer's statement about the difference between Latin and Greek prose; thinks it absurd that Greek should be getting the upper hand, thinks Latin proper for a logical education and Greek's ease and casualness recommends it to this more 'slip-shod' age; wrote to Dr Perse [W. H. D. Rouse, headmaster of the Perse School?] about the Loeb series, has a great deal of translation matter when Tacitus is done; thanks him for [additional volumes of 'The Golden Bough'].

Warns her not to work too hard, sends greetings to Dr Rouse, [Louis] de Glehn, [Léon] Chouville, [William McCausland] Stewart; he reports on progress made visiting publishing houses to see where they are with different publications: received nothing from [Libraire Armand] Colin, so he tried to visit [Max] Leclerc, who wouldn't see him; visited [Librairie] Hatier, and is enclosing a copy of the title [not present]; there is no one left at Malye and the printing isn't going ahead, he says he will print if she agrees to share the cost of the printing.

Macmillan & Co., Ltd. - Is pleased Dr Rouse takes a favourable view of the arrangement with the Loeb Library; encloses in duplicate a memorandum summarising the position with the Loeb Library; explains the compensation he had mentioned was only if the Loeb Library had material that had to be abandoned, but as it is all in type, he is not inclined to compensate, as a smaller fee from Frazer would cover the cost of keeping the type standing. Accompanied by a typed memorandum and a carbon copy (FRAZ/14/55), with the envelope.
