A very good letter, subscribing to Russell's magazine 'Nine' and remarking: "I appreciate Nine's efforts to recall and interpret the past. I wish this did not entail so many vendettas against contemporaries - vendettas in which I usually find myself on the wrong side!". He continues: "I hope you will succeed in publishing the Renaissance number.Gongora wants putting across .. Quintilius - whom I must suppose to be an unacknowledged rival of Claudian, and a thorn, equally unacknowledged, in St Augustine's flesh - gave me much pleasure".
