Betjeman thanks his correspondent for their letter and continues to inform him 'The Marlburian and an ephemeral paper called The Heretick which we edited at Marleborough (sic) and The Draconian, the paper of The Dragon School, Oxford must contain verses by me', further stating 'I was at the Dragon School from about 1917 to about 1920 and at Marleborough (sic) from 1920 to 1925' before asking 'Am I to go through these back numbers if I re-visit my old schools? Or are you going to do that? It is a gruesome task you set me'. Together with a second T.L.S., John Betjeman, one page, 8vo, Cloth Fair, London, 1st October 1959, also to N[eville] Braybrooke. Betjeman writes, in full, 'My publisher John Murray does not want me to publish extracts from my verse autobiography until that work is finished and ready for the press. I must bow to his wishes'. Also including a third T.L.S., John Betjeman, one page, 4to, Cloth Fair, London, 10th November 1972, also to [Neville] Braybrooke. The poet informs his correspondent, in full, 'I did ask Mr. Miller, the gentleman who was collating my papers to keep a lookout for the Ackerley letters, but none came to light. So many of my manuscripts and letters have been lost over the years, and I fear the Ackerleys have gone that way too. I am sorry, but I did try'. Some age wear and creasing, particularly evident to the first two letters, one of which also has a few small tears to the edges. FR to G, 3 Neville Braybrooke (1923-2001) English Poet, Writer, Editor, Literary Critic and Publisher who edited The Letters of J. R. Ackerley (1975). Son of Patrick Braybrooke (1894-1956) English Literary Critic. J. R. Ackerley (1896-1967) British Writer and Editor of The Listener, the BBC's weekly magazine. Ackerley published many emerging poets and writers who would later become successful and influential in Great Britain. Ackerley was openly homosexual, a rarity at a time when homosexuality was socially ostracized and forbidden by law. Two of the present letters were written in response to Neville Braybrooke's research, which extended over some thirty years, into an anthology of juvenilia by writers who would later become famous. The book was published with the title of Seeds in the Wind: Early Signs of Genius in 1989.
