Scope and content
13 Princess Terrace, Balls Road, Birkenhead. - Sends back "Ariadne" ["The Bride of Dionysus"], with detailed criticism: thinks the final act very fine; is not so impressed by the earlier parts but knows little of opera and the music may transform it. "The Dionysus business is peculiarly attractive" to him. Hopes Trevelyan is doing good things at Borrowdale; Orpheus is a good subject.
