WOMEN AND COURAGE
Sir,-If I had at any stage made any criticism of women’s courage, in the sense of which your correspondents complain, the letter from "Not Very Brave," which appeared on November 8, would be a good and sufficient answer. Like your correspondent, I have heard that there was once a mutiny in India, that nurses look after patients in bombed hospitals, and that some women even catch rats. However, since in no single word or line have I disputed these matters, I can only thank your correspondent for substantiating one of my arguments by quarrelling with another that never existed, except in her own feminine imacination.
