22 Primrose Hill Rd., London, N.W.3. - Is pleased to hear good news about Frazer's eyes and grieved to hear of the many operations; her husband [John Maxwell Image] says Lady Frazer makes the only good drumsticks he's ever been served, also commenting, 'I shall be glad when women get the vote, for then I shall sometimes get the wing of a chicken'; she has an article in 'Punch' called 'Burr-Burr', about telephoning from the Zoo.

55 Barton Road, Cambridge - Her husband [John Maxwell Image] used to tell her that the O.M. was a great honour, and that of those awarded to Oxford and Cambridge men, almost all were to Cambridge men, and of those most were at Trinity; how happy he would be to read of two more. Asks if the origin of the phrase 'Bless you' may not be derived in the same way as the Maori quotation in 'Folk-lore in the Old Testament'; apologises to Lady Frazer for not visiting.

Halford, Shipston on Stour -Thanks him for the book ['Man, God and Immortality'?], worries that it may injure the sale of the bigger books; can make nothing of 'tangor' in Ovid, suggests he try Housman, 'who is saturated with the usages of Latin poetry'; approves the dedication to Boni, who was kind in Rome in 1901; death of H. M. Taylor prompts him to remember the rhyme, 'Not Trotter nor Taylor nor Image Esquire is half such a man as little Joe Prior,' though he didn't agree with the sentiment, did not respect Prior; could not return to Cambridge with its ghosts; he did not expect to survive so many; writes of his failing health and that of his sister; will be losing their maid in the spring. Accompanied by the envelope.
