Pièce 9 - Letter from Marie Busch to R. C. Trevelyan

1 item

33 Ossington Street, Bayswater. - After 'the first shock of this great calamity' [war between Britain and Germany], she felt that if she put aside the poem [Trevelyan's 'Bride of Dionysus', which she is translating into German] she may not be able to take it up again, so since Trevelyan seemed to wish it to be finished she has kept on and almost finished it. When she hears that he has returned to the Shiffolds, she will send him the score of the last act and her manuscript. Thinks he ought to pay her less than first agreed since the work will not be put on in Germany.
