Ffeil AAB1/3/1 - Letters to Littleton Charles Powys (photocopies + 1 holograph)

Photocopies of one hundred and eighty-four letters (one partial and undated), [1901-1902, 1904-1905, 1909-1914, 1916-1918, 1921-1923, 1926-1938, 1940], most of which lack an exact date, together with one holograph letter, [?1940], from John Cowper Powys to his brother Littleton Charles Powys, containing mostly personal and family news, including the birth of John Cowper Powys's son Littleton Alfred in 1902 and Littleton Charles's proposed marriage in 1904. Although John Cowper Powys refers to his move to Patchin Place and subsequently to Phudd Bottom, Phyllis Playter is conspicuous by the absence of any reference to her until 1934, just prior to their departure for England. There are occasional ink drawings by John Cowper Powys, including caricatures of himself, his father and his infant son (f. 522) and an epitaph for his dog, known as The Very Old (f. 546).
