Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[ciopy, fragment] to
The Royal Academy London; Dear Sir. You are mistaken with regard to the
ownership of the picture: it does not belong to me. But it belongs to
someone.

Cosmic Man' you sent to me by hand yesterday were an all time low
|

|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft, fragment] & TL[copy] to
The Barber Institute London; Sir. Reading this correspondence, Miss Porter's mind
has strayed to other levelments than those that would supervene
|
| 77 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy] to A. S. B.
Glover London; Dear Mr. Glover. I was unable again to contact you at
West Drayton. The clauses about which I should be glad some enlightenment

|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to David Kahma London; Dear Kharma. Just a short letter, first to thank you
for the promised butter parcel - though as you got unsealed so quickly
|
| 77 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy] to Felix
Giovanelli London; Dear Giovanelli. He will never do it, but you can try
if you like to get Nash to act as follows: to ask him to send one thing,

arrived in good time. The bread it makes us to make spares
|
| 77 |

and made your appearance where I least should have expected
|
| 77 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy] to James
Johnson Sweeney London; My dear Sweeney. It was very nice to hear from you
again. Sometimes in the Partisan Rev. or elsewhere I come across some writing
of yours:
|
| 77 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & AL[draft] &
TL[copy] & TL[copy] & TL[copy ]to The Barber Institute London; Sir. Mr. Edwards again! These museum officials work in
shifts. But he now comes forward with a new illustration
|
| 77 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy] to D. D. Paige

letters for you. Do you want me to send them to Italy?
|
| 77 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[draft] & TL[copy]S to Ezra Pound
London; My dear Ezz. The writing (and reading) you would have
me do is impossible. It takes me all my time to keep alive,
|

|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] to Henry S.

with you naturally that Pound had no treasonable intuitions towards his native
land,
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy] to Times Literary Supplement,
Editor London; Sir. In your critic's review of 'From Sickert to 1948'

me so much where you said you were puzzled I did not write any more verse.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S to David
Kahma London; Dear Dharma. This I fear is a very short letter. You
let me say how much I enjoyed your last letter to me the receipt of which this
is the long overdue acknowledgement;
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy] to David Low London; Dear Low. I saw photos of you in St. Louis where I
spent some time; I envied you the Missouri sun. Today I have mailed you my
book
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy] to Geoffrey
Stone London; My Dear Stone. After some days delay I wrote you a
longish letter to your Austrian address, which I feel somehow you did not
receive.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy] to Alan
Pryce-Jones London; Dear Pryce-Jones. I received your letter jesterday -
oddly dated 17th Aug. It naturally seems to me pity that the letter was not
published
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S to Kenneth
Allott London; Dear Mr. Allott. Thank you for your letter: the
remuneration you mention is quite satisfactory to me. [With part of Lewis'
autobiography.]
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft, fragment] & TL[copy]S to
Lynette Roberts London; Dear Lynette Roberts. I am breaking my long silence:
not to answer your charming and amusing letter but just to break the
silence.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy] to David Low London; Dear Low. It is very generous of you to let me use one
of your cartoons for a token payment only. Now as to the subject.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy] to E. W. F. Tomlin London; My dear Tomlin. How are you, after all these years?
For one thing (let me answer for you) in a very much pleasanter spot
|

morning.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy] to Dorothy
Pound London; Dear Dorothy. Conditiions here do not improve, and I
am very anxious to get out of England for a while. I should probably go to
Canada first
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to David Kahma London; Dear Kharma. For 2 or 3 weeks I have not been well.
There is (as far as I know and as far as the doctors can discover)
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy] to Richard March London; Dear Mr. March. Your letter (of 16 Sept) is, first of
all unnecessarily rude. You may not have a carbon of it, so here is how you
express yourself
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to Lynette
Roberts London; Dear Lynette Roberts. There has been a lot of bother
here otherwise I should have been writing you before this. The long poem is
very fine
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to Geoffrey Stone London; My Dear Stone. So that is where you are! It is
tantalising to think of your relative nearness, for it would please me greatly
to see you again.
|
| 78 |

am delighted to learn that you are taking the book, and am very much gratified

I was very glad to hear that in spite of war and offical cares
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S toFelix Giovanelli
London; Dear Giovanelli. Your letter and Sargents arrived
within a few hours of one another. As you may guess, I was enraptured.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[draft]S toFelix Giovanelli
London; Dear Giovanelli. Dear Gio. Your letter arrived this
afternoon. My rage and disappointment may be imagined
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to David Low London; My dear Low. It is very kind of you to allow me to use
the drawings, and those you selected were precisely what I wanted.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S toFelix
Giovanelli London; Dear Giovanelli. The enclosed is a little over the
odds and I hope no one in the publishing office sees it before the contract is
signed.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S to Felix
Giovanelli London; Dear Gio. Your 2 letters arrived together this
morning. - On Sept. 20 Sargent wrote to tell me that Doubledays unanimously
okayed the book,
|
| 78 |

London; My dear Rhys. It was good news indeed that you like my
massive vignette well enough to take it off right away to the printers
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[copy to David Kahma London; Dear Kharma. This again is no lengthy epistle. It is
most kind of your wife and you to be concerned about my health.
|
| 78 |
|

Roberts London; Dear Lynette Robers. Enclosed are the lists of works
with prices. When you have finished with them will you please make me a present
of them.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy to Times Literary Supplement,
Editor London; Sir. Regarding the notice of "American and Cosmic Man"
on Oct 2, I hope you will not think me uncivil, but the reviewer was no glutton
for work.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S to Felix
Giovanelli London; Dear Giovanelli. Grand news! I have to thank you for
this piece of good fortune - and I do thank you. Also I apologise for all the
time
|

been going through odds and ends of publicity material. I don't know what you
have seen

book. Therein pp. 220-223, you will find passage I send you now.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to Kheidrych Rhys London; Dear Rhys. I have rather radically rearranged - not
re-written - "The Rot". You did not tell me what was happening about that.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S to D. D.
Paige London; My dear Paige. Thank you for your letter. I am glad
the packet of E. P. letters seemed to you worth copying out.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S to John
Sargent London; Dear Mr. Sargent. The agreement reached you safely, I
lean. The two signatures resulted, as I explained upon a slip of paper,
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S to Geoffrey
Stone London; My dear Stone. Just a note this time - many things are
happening of which I will speak to you later: they monopolize my time
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[copy]S to Felix
Giovanelli London; Dear Gio. Yesterday I sent off a short letter to
Sargent. I had intended mailing copy to you at same time, but found cartoon
mislaid

Wednesday night. Much better now. Your letter came a little before the
cold.

Wednesday night of last week. I am much better, but will write more fully
|

|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] to Allan
Gwynne-Jones London; Dear Gwynne-Jones. There is obviously somebody or
other who wishes to show the Pound portrait at this time - for I can hardly
suppose
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to David Kahma London; My dear Kahma. There has been a week's blank. A
violent head cold. This is Monday - I am much better and hope I shall be all
right
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to Gene Nash London; My dear Nash. A bestial headcold is - I believe - just
departing, but I still feel a bit wooly. My silence has been abominable.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & AL[draft] to Allan
Gwynne-Jones London; Dear Gwynne-Jones. Since, for some reason, you
referred to me, I have expressed my wishes, as also any views

draft of the proposed petition. This greatly delayed answer is owing to the
fact

suggestion)

| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & AL[draft] & TL

consultation

specimen E. P. letter enclosed. Regarding the letter,
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to David Kahma London; Dear Khama (or Kahma). Your letter came along today
with the admirable forgery of an Ezra letter!
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TLS to Gene Nash London; Dear Nash. Your Nov. 9 letter to hand. First, the
picture question. It appears that such a transaction as you mention -
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham AL[draft] & TL[draft] &
TL[copy] toSir Nicholas Waterhouse London; Dear Docker. The first two lines of "Your reviewers"
letter are, as you say, of a most questionable veracity.
|
| 78 |
|
Lewis, Wyndham TL[copy]S to Archibald
MacLeish London; Dear MacLeish. In February I arrive in the U.S. to do
some lectures and a little business. Do you know of any club or college

age-bracket

I learned the photos would pass muster.
|
