Scope and content
37 Weetwood Lane, Far Headingley, Leeds. - Jokingly calls Trevelyan 'unreasonable' for coming to Leeds in August, when he will not be there himself; tries to persuade him to make it a different time, or to visit them in Anglesey there instead. There is a rural district there named after Goronwy Owain (they could discuss whether he could be as great a poet as Milton), and the Eisteddfod is to be held this year at Holyhead. Is helping to judge Masefield's Oxford Recitations next week; they might meet there. 'Aghast' to think of Trevelyan and Bessie listening to his wireless talks; tends to think wireless a great imposition 'except for the Cup Final and jazz'. Would love to hear Trevelyan's translation of "Prometheus". Has not yet seen 'R.B.'s [Bridges?] new poem, but has heard much of it. Offers to show Trevelyan Fountains Abbey and Shandy Hall if he comes in the autumn.
