Drafts and memoranda

A hardcover notebook containing incomplete manuscript drafts by Phyllis Playter of a prose piece entitled 'Where Other Rivers Flow'. The back of the volume contains diary entries and personal memoranda by Phyllis Playter, in which she mentions John Cowper Powys and the health of her father Franklin Playter; a note (f. 65 verso) by Powys biographer Morine Krissdottir suggests the date 1929 for at least part of this section. A Joplin Printing Company label is pasted on the inside front cover. Inserts comprise a printed representation of the frontispiece of J. L. Campbell's novel The Miracle of Peille (between ff. 41 verso and 42) and a feather (between ff. 56 verso and 57). Ff. 2 verso, 9-53, 54-56 verso, 64-65, and 76 verso are blank.
