Wolverhampton Art and Industrial Exhibition, 1902, Gresham Chambers, Lichfield Street, Wolverhampton. - Is sorry not to have replied and sent the Gorki sooner: has been 'on a tramp through the blessed county of Salop' and has felt so proud of being Shropshire born that he hasn't felt up to writing. Is sending "Burnt Njal", which he thinks the best of the Sagas; will send the others later on. Is returning Cervantes's "Exemplary Tales" and sends the Buccaneer book [by Burney] which is very interesting, but not as charming as Esquemeling [Exquemelin]. Thanks Trevelyan for the kind offer of books: has most of Pater and is not very keen on Flaubert; asks if he can borrow any book by Verlaine, or Mallarme's prose translation of Poe, anything by de l'Isle-Adam except "Axël", any 'classic history' on Pompey's suppression of the pirates or the Roman occupation of Britain. Asks if Trevelyan has Defoe's "Roxana" or Doddington's "Memoirs", Grimm's letters, Berlioz's Memoirs, Renan's 'Celtic essays' ["The poetry of the Celtic races"] or any of the Brendan's Voyages.
