FRAZ/14/34 · Item · 7 Jan. 1925
Part of Papers of Sir James Frazer

55 Rue de Varenne, VIIe. - Congratulates the Frazers; thanks her for the 'Folklore dans l'Ancien Testament'; would like to write something on the 'Leaves from the Golden Bough' on the theme 'children say they don't like fairy stories anymore'; the 'Golden Bough' explains how men first made fairy stories; Maurice returned charmed with his first trip to London; he posed for Jacques E. Blanche, and does not hide his interest in returning to London where he has independence; they are finally installed in their Tower of Babel, very near the sky, blinded by the sun which faded their carpets; Lady Frazer has spoiled Victor with the pretty little cap with the colours of the clan; how sad they will be to miss them at [Hotel] Lutetia this year; it is not easy to meet them; they have had a big storm the previous week, all the mail has been delayed.
