[the 'intellectual' clique within the Clarion Scouts, including Edwin Muir] "followed the literary and intellectual development of the time, discovering such writers as Bergson, Sorel, Havelock Ellis, Galsworthy, Conrad, E.M. Forster, Joyce and Lawrence, the last two being contributed by me, for I had seen them mentioned in the New Age by Ezra Pound".'

'Thank you very much for the books. Monahan I like. E[zra] P[ound] is certainly a poet but I am afraid I am too old and too wooden-headed to appreciate him as perhaps he deserves.'

'I have just seen the Pound pamphlet though Farrar & Rinehart never took the trouble to send
me a copy. I think it looks fine and is a tribute not only to Mr. Pound but to the generosity of its
writers. Did I, by the bye, ever express to you my admiration for your HAMLET? It is real a very
great book, and my admiration is equally great. If you would tell your publishers to send me
copies of your works it would give me great pleasure and I might possibly be of use to them. I
ought to buy them myself but I never hear of them in Toulon so I can't.'
