Scope and content
FRAZ/31 consists of one box containing Lilly Frazer's writings and materials relating to her plays, lectures, and French lessons, with a small collection of press cuttings and printed material, many of them in her native French. There are only three playscripts and five short stories or articles represented in their entirety; the rest are incomplete.
The box includes a draft of a 12 page letter in Lilly Frazer's hand to an unidentified correspondent dated 19 May [1926], in which she shares stories of J. G. Frazer's absentmindedness and lack of interest in money (Item 64); it also includes an early telegram possibly sent by Père Hyacinthe [the religious name taken by Charles Loyson] to [Emilie?] Meriman in 1872 (Item 38).
