Scope and content
The Times Literary Supplement, The Times Publishing Company Ltd, Printing House Square, London, E.C.4. - Very kind of Trevelyan to send him his 'little book of poems' ["From the Shiffolds"] last Christmas; apologises for taking so long to thank him, 'nonwithstanding the long interval that has elapsed' since their last meeting. His life is such 'turmoil' that he 'does not have time for writing'; apologises for also sending only a typewritten acknowledgement of Trevelyan's letter about Ursula Wood; would be glad to meet her and suggests she visits him one afternoon; has a 'few particulars' about her from Trevelyan's letter, and remembers that there is a poem 'inscribed to her' in "From the Shiffolds". Asks if he might see Trevelyan some day, as 'there is counsel that [he] should like to ask, and few but [Trevelyan] can give it, or would'.
