MAXWELL
(Capt. William Babbington, d. 1938, Chairman of Society of Authors, Novelist)
Autograph Letter Signed to 'My dear Beresford',
saying that they "have heard no more of Miss Hayes ... in support of her absurd claims. Wells' advice about insolence and its art would scarcely seem acceptable to you, and I wonder if W himself has ever really acted on it. I have read some most appreciative notices of your new book ... Alas, I cannot go with Frampton and Sutro on their cruise ... I have done what one should never do - that is, sell the serial rights of an unwritten novel; and the beastly thing is now appearing month by month in a magazine while I go grinding on with it and feeling feverishly anxious but quite unable to finish it", 2 sides 4to., 1 Albert Court, Kensington Gore, 15th April
