Autograph Letter Signed to Mrs Bethel [Solomons], 2 pages 8vo (on facing pages, some creasing), National Gallery of Ireland, 27 June 1917. A charming letter promising to call and bring some new poems.

'... I'll drop in about 2 o'clock for a look and a chat and, maybe, if your in the mood, for five minutes of the music. I hope the poor Doodles in getting better. I saw him tumbling up the steps and down the steps the other day. ... I'll bring a little bunch of new poems, &, if ye can stand it, I'll read a few. ...'
