(Rev. Selwyn, 1849-1930, Slade Professor of Fine Art, Oxford, 1910-1916)
Autograph Letter Signed to Dewar
saying that he can’t tell him “how touched and delighted we both are by your kindness. What a beautiful book! What a beautiful edition! what a beautiful inscription! Again I can only say we are more pleased than I can tell - and with the inscription not least of all. Thank you most heartily. Surely the volume is a rare one? The Farmer’s Boy I know and possess. But I am ashamed to say that of this book I never heard. And how delightful it is! It reached us on Thursday night - but I delayed writing till we had both read it through. And we are both most charmed with it. It is a book everyway after our own hearts. I hope both you and Mrs Dewar have kept well during this tryig winter - which with its plague of Influenza has laid so many of us low - myself amongst the number. But thanks to the lavish care bestowed on me I’m now quite recovered. Again with our united thanks and kindest remembrances...”, 2 sides 8vo., 20 Fitzroy Street, 24th February

Fine Autograph Letter signed to Lady Anderson
saying that he "was held down here by the effects of flu but will be back in Tite St this week ... I hope you are quite recovered and will be able to come round ... I shall get on with the Spanish muchachas I hope. I did one of the Alba girl but want to do another. I found her very sweet and sympatico. I do not know their styles & titles so don't know how to write to or ring them personally for sittings. I have the Horizons waiting for me in London. You must realise they will need drastic revision ...", 1 side 8vo., Fryern Court, Hants, 8th January
