Scope and content

On 5 Cavendish Squareheaded notepaper addressed to 'my dear Ernie', thanking him for the photograph ' a very good likeness of my bad boy'. Hogg continues to ask Muggeridge about his life in Scotland, particularly the speciality dish of haggis. Hogg writes that 'the Poly 'stands where it did' but that is about all te resemblance you will find in it. Its internal organs have been shifted about remorselessly; its stomach, in particular, has been lowered to the next floor, while its interior will have been paved partly with stone bricks and partly, in a still more remorseless manner, with Mosaic.'. Signed.
