From the Macqueen-Pope papers. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 1p, 12mo. In good condition. Signed 'Ralph' and addressed to 'Dear Popie'. It was 'extremely good', 'and typical too', of MP to write to him 'about the new Award'. He is 'at Newcastle now with the Val Parnell Summer Show and we ring up on Monday'. MP will know 'what we shall be going through at the moment!' He ends by thanking him 'VERY [sic] much for writing'.…

From the Macqueen-Pope papers. See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, 4to. Sixty lines of text. Aged and worn, but entirely legible. Signed 'H. F. Maltby' and addressed to 'My dear Pope'. Most of the letter concerns the tomb of 'Maggoty' Johnson: 'I first met that interesting old gentleman over forty years ago, when I was playing at the Theatre Royal Macclesfield with the late Mrs Bandman-Palmer. It was my landlady who advised me to visit the tomb as one of the objects of interest in the place. The tomb was then covered by a large stone on which was engraved all particulars of his death, [.] It then burst out into a very lengthy epitaph in doggerel'. He gives a facetious couplet from this, with the carved response of 'the local vicar'. 'I visited the grave again some twenty years later: but, alas! the iconoclasts, the vandals had been there with their cursed pocket knives and had carved their damned initials all over it - God rot hem! - and both stones were well night illegible.' He mentions a production of 'Madame Butterfly' at the Duke of York's, 'where it was put on as an afterpiece to Jeromes flop "Miss Hobbs" and kept that running for months and months after its alloted span, Jerome drawing his fees all the time, though the audiences were careful not to get to the theatre till "Miss Hobbs" had finished. The cast of "Butterfly" was the same as "Hobbs" - Evelyn Millward, Allen Aynesworth, Herbert Wareing, Cosmo Stuart (Gordon Lennox) it was there Pucchini (can't spell his name) saw it and decided [to] "operize" it. Also, didn't "Charley's Aunt" enjoy most of it's very long run at The Globe Theatre? It was where I saw it. I think it moved there from the Royalty.'.…

From the Macqueen-Pope papers. (See his entry in the Oxford DNB.) The Clan Chattan Association is a confederation of highland clans. 2pp, 4to. In fair condition, lightly aged, with slight creasing to one corner, and rust staining from paperclip. Folded twice for postage. Addressed to MP's London address in Coventry Street. 'I've heard about your James MacQueen. His name appears in quite a few locally published papers &c. on Culloden. His new teeth are quite famous up here.' He accepts the proposal for an article: 'if you could go to 900-1000 words I'd be happy'. He reports: 'Our President - The Mackintosh, has just been returned unopposed as representative of the parish of Moy & Dalarossie on Inverness County Council. He was also the other day commissioned as a Deputy Lieutenant. / During the last two years of the Home Guard I commanded a platoon - about 300 strong! - located outside Inverness and mostly in the Mackintosh country'. He names locations, adding: 'I had a big number of MacQueen's in the platoon. About half dozen in the Farr section were very strict Wee Frees and wouldn't turn out to drill on the "Sabbath", our chief day for drills!' He continues with reference to 'a coast defence battery' he recruited, and ends with reference to his recent ill-health.…
