Scope and content
The University of Rochester, College of Arts and Science, Rochester, New York, Biological Laboratories. - Has felt very close to the Trevelyans since receiving the Leopardi translations and "Aftermath": it is good to know that creative work is going on in protest against destruction. The poem on Lowes Dickinson had a special appeal: she has been thinking about him since the war started. Read her paper on Forster and Dickinson again last week, by request; even though 'hysteria has taken control' here people will still listen 'spell-bound' to reason. Wrote to tell Bessie that Gordon is safely out of Burma; longs to hear that he and Tee Tee have reached England. Oliver Waley is a great companion. Is working very hard, conditions at the University are difficult; will send reprints of her latest articles. Their farm is looking beautiful.
