Socialism is a word the definition of which no two people appear to agree about. Ask a dozen Socialists what they understand by their faith & they will each tell you something different.' The opinions depicted in the play are both 'clear' and 'foggy', 'but it is [in] no sense propagandist - I hate propaganda in art.' He goes on to discuss his own views: 'I am not a socialist. Socialistic & communistic ideals will undoubtedly be exploited in this country when Labour returns to power & I apprehend no vital or rational advantages under that regime.' In a twenty-three line postscript he expounds a position sympathetic to Fascism, beginning: 'The masses have always needed string to lead them. Take Italy & take England under the Commonwealth.

He considers Britain to be 'a nation of political dwarfs. Labour has no genius to guide or guard, [.] In the Liberal ranks you see what I mean: Lloyd George genius without principle; Lord Grey principle without a ray of genius.'. …

Just to look at the courts and walls was an experience not to be forgotten'. She and her sister thank him for 'the many little things' he did at Cambridge, adding: 'I never thought of the Hymn Society as providing such bounties for us'. She will propose his name 'for membership in the American Society', and hopes one day to return his kindness in New York. From the papers of Frederick Allan Wilshire, whose entry in 'Who Was Who' describes him as having been a 'Professional musician before reading for the Bar' and being 'President Bristol Monday Musical Club'.…
