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.
