My dear McKerrow

I have no decoration except plain Master of Arts and my official designation. If you think my edition of Jane Austen ‘qualifies’, by all means put it in. I think perhaps Clarendon Press had better not appear, though the Delegates will be glad that their benevolent attitude should be known indirectly.

Yours sincerely {1}
R. W. Chapman

R B McKerrow Esq
