Summary
Sending him his piece on Osbert Sitwell and asking that he not "comment too severely in the margins" as it is the copy he intends to show to Osbert Sitwell himself; stating that he "tried to make it the kind of introduction which might encourage an intelligent young man or foriegner to read his books", and expressing concern that Sitwell might feel that the piece "gives too much space to his early poetry and to his papa."
