Item 1 - Letter from Sydney Castle Roberts to R. C. Trevelyan

1 letter: typescript with autograph signature and postscript.

University Press, Cambridge. - Thanks Trevelyan. Sure the Syndics would like the Press to continue to be the publishers of Trevelyan's translations, but it is a 'question of time': they have just printed his "Oedipus Colonus", and have his "Theocritus" 'in the safe', to be published 'in due course'. But they also have many other manuscripts ready in the safe, and 'priority is a difficult problem': if Trevelyan wants to get his book of shorter translations out in the next twelve months, Roberts feels he should advise him to try another publisher. Adds a postscript to say he is enclosing a 'specimen page of the proposed style for Theocritus' [no longer present'.
