DE LA MARE
(Walter John, 1873-1956, Poet and Novelist)
Fine Typed and Autograph letter signed to MissNancy Bowden
saying that he is sure she "will welcome nice legible type. I was amused by your remark about the notepaper. I don't much care for this flimsy stuff but anything rather than deckle edged! But this is really to say how glad I am that you have heard through Mr Masefield of Mrs Monro's address. I wish we could meet again. I agree with what you say about Charlotte Mew's poetry and women's in general. The poem you mention was written many years, I think, before I came to live in Buckinghamshire - a lovely County indeed. If I may say so, there is not the faintest reason why the lectures should have that effect; & I feel pretty certain you will come out on the other side so keep your pen ready ...", 1 side oblong 8vo., The Old Park, Penn, 12th May
