Scope and content

260 Mary Street, Balsall Heath, Birmingham. - Apologises for not replying sooner to Trevelyan's letter, which arrived on the day of his return to the [Birmingham Repertory] theatre; has been very busy since, and also 'perplexed' about his contribution. "The God of Quiet" will be on stage from 7 October, and he likes to have his plays published by the time of production if possible. May also want to publish it and two other one act plays in a book next spring. Asks when the "Annual [of New Poetry]" will be published, whether Constables would agree to him publishing the play in book form next spring - if they gave him reasonable terms he would be happy to publish with them, and what would be the latest date he can decide whether to send the play or some new poems for the "Annual".
