Content DescriptionExpresses great surprise that Mrs [Mabel] Collishaw should allege his wife had not been a teacher; refers Sagar to a class photo dated 1906 held at Eastwood Library, which includes his wife; a copy of his own photo of the entire staff will be forwarded as 'convincing evidence'; comments that Mrs Collishaw's misleading memories are an example of why so much misunderstanding is published about D.H.L. and his family; this is why for so many years he and his wife would not be interviewed.
