84777 October 1936 and 12 March 1937; both on letterheads of 'The Warden's Lodgings New College Oxford'. Both items good on lightly-aged paper. Letter One: 4to 1 p. Begins 'The College today at its Special General Meeting did itself the honour of electing you to an Honorary Fellowship. We trust that it may not be unacceptable to you to be thus associated with our Society. There are no duties save that of wearing a surplice in Chapel on Sundays and Feasts of the Church.' He thanks Gore for his 'generous words' of the previous day. Letter Two: 4to 2 pp. He thanks him for his 'helpful letter about David' Gore's son the Conservative politician William David Ormsby-Gore 5th Baron Harlech 1918-1985 and consequently raises no objection 'to his being out of College in the Autumn' which 'may well prove to be the best thing for him'. The previous day David told Fisher 'that he was anxious to go into the House of Commons as soon as possible'. Fisher 'can see from his appreciation of Thucydides and de Tocqueville which is obviously genuine that his mind is taking a political shape.' He sees 'gleams of unusual promise about the boy' and thinks that 'As his physical strength improves and as the memories of those shocks to which you allude fade into the background . he will gain in confidence and concentration'. Characterises him as being at that time 'wayward elusive casual rather than idle decidedly <> with occasional touches of brilliance extremely sensitive and reserved' and with 'a certain distinction of nature'. He 'gave up the Hebdomadal Council' after his illness the previous year and does not know 'what is afoot about Honorary Degrees'. 7 October 1936 and 12 March 1937; both on letterheads of 'The Warden's Lodgings, New College, Oxford'. unknown

11294Both from 20 Fitzroy Street W.; 12 and 17 August 1908. Both items good on aged paper. Written in Image's distinctive calligraphic hand. Letter One 12 August 1908: 1 p 12mo. The 'Galatheas' arrived the previous evening 'quite safe'. 'Fancy your being at The Warren as well as at Deal! The Warren Folkestone is famous for being stocked with good things. You are indeed in the very heart of the richest entomological country in England.' Letter Two 17 August 1908: 2 pp 12mo. He is delighted with 'these beautiful ochroleuca which arrived this afternoon quite safely'. He discusses the occurrence of a moth: 'In old days when I was a boy at Brighton I think we used to get sometimes between us half-a-dozen in a morning or afternoon search on the stems of centaurea nigra'. He also discusses the 'brown Geometers' which 'sounld like Eubolia mensuraria' 'a handsome creature' the 'grey Noctua with whitish thorax' and 'Pygmacola': 'The Footmen are not easy creatures to find even when one is in the locality.' Image's entry in the Oxford DNB describes how 'He found his favourite motifs in Epping Forest which he also frequented on moth-hunting expeditions for he was an ardent entomologist and made a collection of British butterflies exquisitely arranged and labelled now in the Hope entomological collections at the University of Oxford Museum of Natural History.'

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
