Pièce 16 - Letter from S. Reinach to Lady Frazer

1 item

16 Avenue Victor Hugo, Boulogne-Sur-Seine - Thanks her for the amusing Sylvain Biscuit [?] letter and the beautiful verse; his wife thinks her lucky to have an appreciative consort; defends his previous letter's criticism of Walston, he has seen the Walstons more than once, but found nothing to praise in the 'Alcamenes', he will be restrained in his review, but 'there must be some pepper at the bottom to save my honour as a critic'; mentions a time Furtwaengler [Adolf Furtwängler?] behaved badly to [Walston, then Walstein]; is writing to 'your Buffon friend', is home on Sundays, ladies don't come before 3 1/2, the conversation is never about dresses, servants, or impending divorces; supposes the Slavonic Josephus will come up again at the Loisy Congress, Couchoud's and Goguel's articles are very superficial and he sides with Eisler, wishes Frazer would make up his mind about this.
