Scope and Contents
Boar’s Hill, Oxford Jan 3. Masefield replies at length to Bull’s question about whether people skate much in England; offers to send Bull battered, 18th century books published when the patron-bookseller system prevailed and readers read as they have ‘never since done’; closes on subject of ‘the good author’ with ‘Nil desperandum’ reference to Teucer in Horace’s Odes.
