Scope and content
The Mill House, Stanford Dingley, nr Reading, Berks. - There are more letters of her husband's letters to Robert Bridges [on metrical questions, particularly in 'Testament of Youth'] than he thought; he lists them by date and mentions also fourteen letters from Bridges. Hopes he may have her permission to print them all, then he's sure the executor will also agree. Intends to add a note to each letter explaining to which poem they allude; would make the book unwieldy and difficult in terms of copyright to include quotations here. Is not planning to advertise the book publicly, but would send round notices to friends he knows are admirers of Bridges. Cannot take on a larger edition.
