Scope and content
13 Princess Terrace, Balls Rd, Birkenhead. - Thanks for obtaining Masefield's opinion. "[S]ufficient encouragement" to have friends such as Trevelyan; it seems clear that Abercrombie might get something better than his present work. Is busy on a three act play. Thinks he will stay the winter in Birkenhead and look out for opportunities; Masefield is willing to help, and the lectures Trevelyan mentions may prove useful: he will consult Miss Embleton. Hopes to find something which will allow him to live in the country. Hopes "Orpheus" is going well. Thinks he was probably too severe on "Ariadne" [see 1/27].
