[late November 1937]
Dear McCleary
Thank you much for the tune – which very interesting – I am sending it on to the editor of the Folksong Journal – but we should like all the verses for record if not for publication. Could you lunch with me at the RCM1 on Wednesday Dec 8th at 1.0 – I am so sorry I cannot manage next Wednesday.
We have been having a few weeks in London – but our time has been much cut up as my mother died last week & I have had to spend much of my time at her home
Our kind regards to you both
Yrs
