6 Chesterton Hall Crescent, Cambridge.—Has known Smith for many years, having previously been aware of him as a brilliant student. The distinguished body of work Smith has published in «Scrutiny» has made him known in all the universities of the English-speaking world and he is especially fitted by his linguistic skills to interpret English literature and culture abroad. Testifies to his teaching abilities and pays tribute to his establishment of a British Institute at Caracas. Recommends him for the chair of English at Fribourg and commends his personality.
