Letters about religion

The file comprises manuscript drafts of writings relating to religion, principally to the form and significance of the Liturgy. Very many of these writings appear to have been inspired by David Jones' increasing disquiet at liturgical change in the Roman Catholic church from the mid 1950s onwards. Some of the drafts are of letters to The Tablet (and possibly also to other periodicals) and others appear to be of letters to private correspondents. A few drafts can be identified as being of part of 'A Christmas Message 1960' (The Dying Gaul, pp. 167-76). One draft has on its dorse a pencil sketch of a female head in profile.

Letters about Welsh literature

The file comprises manuscript drafts, most of which appear to be of a letter to an unnamed periodical concerning 'the contribution which the Welsh mind and tradition has made to the common tradition of the Island'. One of these drafts is dated 8 September 1948. There are also two drafts of what appear to be part of a letter (to The Tablet?) about the Roman Catholic church in Wales. There is a note by Harman Grisewood on the wrapper concerning 'the top half dozen or so books which played a formative part in forming his outlook.'

Letter to The Times

The file comprises manuscript drafts of a letter, apparently to The Times, arising from a leading article entitled 'At King Arthur's Court' concerning the excavations at South Cadbury.

Hartrick to David Jones dated 29 January 1944 (an invitation to lunch), together with a draft letter from David Jones to the editor of The Times concerning A. S. Hartrick, a note concerning Hartrick in David Jones's hand and one page of a typescript writing with a brief footnote also apparently concerning Hartrick.
