Moore, Doris Langley, 1902-1989

"Dear Mrs Moore, Paul has sent on your letter to him because he is vague about Marie Corelli. I think you have been led astray there. As far as I know, Mother never new[sic] Marie Corelli - she may have met her at dinner [?] but nothing else..."

"Dear Mrs Langley Moore - Many thanks for the list of [pieces?] - I am such a pausper than I am strongly tempted to try to sell the GBS letter - I have notes from Henley and Kipling also - perhaps I'll sell them first, but they won't fetch much of a price..."

"Dear Mrs Langley Moore, Many thanks for the list of pieces - I am such a pauper that I am strongly tempted to try to sell the GBS letter - I have notes from Kipling and Henley also - perhaps I'll sell them first, but they won't fetch much of a price..."

"Thank you for your letter of the 18th. My husband's name is Thomas, for use in the reference to the Nesbit letter I possess. I have [?] old-fashioned feminist prejudices against that method of describing a married woman, but I don't want to insist on them if you are aiming at uniformity!..."

"Dear Madam, I enclose a letter which I received from the late "E. Nesbit" in 1913. I saw your letter, appealing for recollections of her, in the Times Literary Supplement early in this year, but have been prevented from writing sooner..."

Attachments include an Extract of a letter written by A. Lenore Craser of South Australia in 1973, an extract of a letter by A. Phillips of South Australia in 1973, and the extract from a diary of Peter Jacob Planta, born in 1721.

Due to the filing system Doris Langley Moore kept, these letters are glued together in a manner that is impossible to separate without permanent damage.
