Scope and content
5 The Grove, Boltons, S.W (on embossed notepaper for Boscombe Manor, Bournmouth, Hants, this address crossed out). - Jeaffreson's book The Real Shelley apparently slanders the poet: should her husband respond, and in what way? Professor Dowden was given private papers and could refute Jeaffreson's statements, but his biography is not yet published; reviewers are mostly against Jeaffreson.
