Two copies of an obituary [in "The Times"; see 1/122-123] containing tributes from Sir Michael Sadler and R. C. Trevelyan; a cutting with a tribute from Sir Walford Davies, mentioning Abercrombie's close work with musicians, his association with the Festivals of Music and Poetry held at Gregynog in Montgomeryshire, and the power of his poetic readings; obituary from an unidentified newspaper; notice in "The Times" about a memorial service for Abercrombie held in Merton College Chapel, Oxford; obituary from the "Manchester Guardian", 28 Oct 1938.

High Meadow, Cookham Dean, Berks. - Was pleased to hear from Nairne that he had, albeit unconsciously, inspired the Sir Roger de Coverley essays. Accompanied by the envelope.

Thanks Bessy for her 'encouraging' letter. Glad she liked the article on Walford [Davies], which 'had to be written in a hurry' when he 'wasn't feeling well'; some bad misprints, and he particularly objects to '"beauty of intention" (which is an insult) instead of "beauty of invention"!'
