DAME SYBIL THORNDIKE
Sir,-I do not wish you to be taken to task for the article which I wrote on _Dame Sybil Thorndike and Sir Lewis Casson. No doubt Mr. I. R. MaxwellStewart has since seen your correction, and obyiously now would wish to criticise me. He has cleverly divined that I used a work of reference to guide me to the facts of the careers of our distine guished friends: it was The Oxford Come panion to the Theatre. Your correspondent implies that such works are unreliable. There are, it seems, reference books and "the true facts." Be that as it may, I consulted the Oxford Companion only for the first paragraph: the rest ig all mv own work.
