Autograph Letter Signed to A. Nelson Taylor (b. 1900, of Netherton, near Huddersfield), saying he is "very touched and pleased ...

How hateful it is! but I am still at work - and helped by your kindness", with a P.S., "I see we are both Yorkshiremen! I was born, and lived a lot of the time, at Scarborough", 1 side oblong 8vo, Weston Hall, Towcester, Northamptonshire, 26th November
