In sending a copy of its monthly journal 'the Council makes an appeal not only because it stands for all those things upon which we as a free people pride ourselves but also because it is a live energetic body and shows practical results'. There is a reference to 'these critical days' and the letter ends by stating that 'it is in your interest to use its services and to see that it is strong and efficient to protect your liberties'. 23 November 1939.

13144Both letters on letterhead of 20 Bradmore Road Oxford. Letter to Sylvia Lynd: 16 December 1930. Letter to Sigle Lynd: 19 July 1930. Both items in very good condition on lightly-aged paper. Both letters are written in an excited gushing style and have the margins filled with extra text. Letter to Sylvia Lynd: 2pp. 4to. Addressed to 'Dear Mrs Lynd'. He conveys at great length his 'immense gratitude' at her 'hospitality': 'I have never really told you what very great happiness this succession of glorious meals has given me - This visit to London was splendid and neither Sweet-Escott nor the Kind Cabmennor my Kinder Aunt in Saint John's Wood are really at all the hosts whom I want to thank for it - But you.' He thanks her for 'Rock' which he is sure 'is best' and makes a couple of references to a recent rugby match 'my right shoulder aching . where a nasty heavy forward wilfully kicked it when no one was looking and the scrum had fallen down yesterday afternoon - A beautiful game and I kept swallowing mud and getting it into my eyes'. He urges her and her family to 'come to Bamburgh'. Letter to Sigle Lynd who studied chemistry and biology at Somerville 1929-1930 leaving after four terms as she was 'too busy dancing': 2pp. 12mo. With envelope docketed by Sigle Lynd: 'Lovely enthusiasm from T. It increases my regret even more.' The letter begins with a flight of fancy: 'As for the Byron and the poem I gave them to your charming maid who told me she remembered me and my name was Mr Barry wasn't it I said it wasn't - But it has occurred to me that she may have meant Barrie and not believing my denial she has probably stolen the MS and has been hawking it round to low Publishers hoping by persuading them that as Barrie writes few poems this must be a rarity to get a vast price for it. It will be fun if they bring out a pirated edition for it - But I'm afraid if they compare handwriting and style they may see through it - and she will get nothing poor creature.' He is sending her 'the Poets Progress because I met the young man who wrote it Walter D'Arcy Cresswell 1896-1960 - he's miserably poor and charming - and it's an excellent book - prose rather like Bridges and exciting metaphysical ideas - so your copy if I remember to get it will bring him one and threepence or so which he badly needs'. The letter contains another invitation to Bamburgh: 'Remember that I shall be working at least six hours a day and you will be able to do that and more if you like to miss dirty games like lobstering'. From the Lynd family papers. Both letters on letterhead of 20 Bradmore Road, Oxford. Letter to Sylvia Lynd: 16 December 1930. Letter to Sigle Lynd: 19 July 1 unknown
