Transcript

2 Bankfield Lane, Southport.
17 June 1936.

Dear Dr. McKerrow,

Herewith Act V of 2 Henry VI. I don’t think there is anything I have to say about it in general as most of my difficulties have been with the details which I have noted on the slips, but I must apologise for the nasty-looking paper I finished it on. I typed it at the week-end {1} and had to use what I had—and my taste in paper (which I know is poor) must appear lamentable to the expert in this commodity. I hope it won’t offend you too much!

I havn’t found much to say about the notes. There are one or two things that rather trouble me (such as the ‘hempen caudle’ {2}) but as I havn’t found any solution to them I havn’t bothered to put them down. If anything occurs to me about them I can put some slips in with the next batch.

If you would like me to carry on with Part 3, I can face it any time you care to send it.

Yours sincerely,
Alice Walker.
