Consitt House

17 Decr 1956

Dear Lady Tweedsmuir,

I've just come across this letter,
exactly 60 years old. I may interest you
for a moment. In the Long Vac of 1896 I went
with H.F. Fox to Germany with a reading party.
The "New Coll man" was A.P. Oppé, now
an Authority on the pictures at Windsor. He
was here a year or two ago: so old!

Bacon's Essays were, I think the first
of his works which he donated to me. The
D.Y. Cameron etchings are in Musa Piscatrix.

I don't want to keep this letter.

With all good wishes

Yours sincerely

B.C. Boulter
