Notes
The principal unpublished sources are designated in the notes as either Evans or Benedik;:.. Before he died, Galsworthy had selected two successive literary representatives (the maximum allowable by law): his wife, Ada, and his nephew, Rudolf Sauter. Most material remained with Ada while she lived, although some of it was lost in the bombing of a shed adjacent to her house in Torquay during the Second World War, some was inadvertently sold, and some apparently deliberately destroyed. After she died, in 1956, Rudolf Sauter assembled the remaining material more systematically. In 1959, he signed an agreement with the University of Birmingham through Professor Allardyce Nicoll, establishing a Galsworthy Memorial Collection in the rare book room of the University's library. This and a special room devoted to portraits and exhibits were officially opened in July 1962. Ownership, however, was still held by the Galsworthy Trust, the five surviving nephews and nieces in equal shares, and the material was granted to the University of Birmingham on a twenty-year loan to expire on 1 January 1980. Rudolf Sauter died in June 1977. After his death, the other members of the trust decided to sell this material in a single lot at auction at Sotheby's on 24 July 1979. This is now owned by Forbes Magazine, and has, since 1982, been situated in the Forbes Building on 60 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY 10011. In the notes that follow, reference to this material, which I read at Birmingham between 1973 and 1975, is indicated by Evans, often succeeded by a catalogue designation QG, followed by a number) from the Catalogue of the Galsworthy Collection compiled by D. W. Evans in 1967. A good deal of other, personal Galsworthy material, letters of particular importance, notebooks and some diaries, remained in Rudolf Sauter's personal possession. This was not under the control of the Galsworthy Trust and was left directly to the University of Birmingham as a bequest under the terms of his will. This material, some of which I saw at his home while Rudolf Sauter was alive and the rest of which I read at the University of Birmingham in 1979 and 1981, remains at Birmingham. Reference to this is indicated by Benedikz, often followed by a number or a series of numbers, using the catalogue called The Galsworthy Papers: The Bequest of R. H. Sauter, compiled by B. S. Benedikz in 1978. Permission to quote from copyright-material was granted by Rudolf Sauter in 1975. All illustrations are used by permission of the University ofBirmingham. Other library sources and those of public collections used in the notes are abbreviated as follows:
Bod. Bodleian Library, Oxford, containing the Gilbert Murray Papers.

Beginning in 1923, Heinemann published a complete edition, finally totalling thirty volumes, of all Galsworthy's work, called the Manaton Edition. In America, to which the plates were shipped, this was called the Devon Edition and published by Scribner's. Galsworthy wrote prefaces for all the volumes that had originally been published before 1923. Citations for these prefaces are indicated by Manaton, since they are generally known as the Manaton prefaces, even though my pagination is drawn from the Devon Edition (which should be identical to that of the Manaton Edition). Other citations from Galsworthy's published writings are indicated by JG, followed by appropriate abbreviations listed roughly in the order of original publication:

Marrot, p. 431. 67. Dudley Barker identified the girl as Sybil Carr, whom Galsworthy had met at a country house in Wales. Barker wrote as if class and social issues had divided the young lovers: "That is about all that is now known about her, except that she gave singing lessons, she was poor, and old John disapproved of her as a possible wife for his elder son" (D. Barker, p. 33). Catherine Dupre straddles the possible "Carlisle/Carr" confusion by saying that Sybil's mother was Mrs Carlisle Carr. Dupre, more accurately, points out that it was the mother, not the daughter, who taught singing and that Sybil and young Jack met at a house party given by Colonel and Mrs Randall in the Wye Valley, where they both acted in a version ofT. W. Robertson's play Caste: "Jack Galsworthy fell in love with Sybil and Sybil fell in love with the stage." Dupre does not add that Sybil could not have been more than sixteen at the time. Emphasizing the theme ofGalsworthy's family's disapproval, Dupre claims that further evidence is contained in an entry in Lilian Galsworthy's diary for October, 1888, over a year after the initial meeting between Sybil and jack, in which Lilian states: "father suffered great anxiety and trouble about Jack, who accepted an invitation to the Rowlands contrary to all wishes, ofF. & M. at the beginning of the long vac" (Dupre, p. 35). But Dupre never connects the Rowlands either with Sybil or with Colonel and Mrs Randall. 68. DI, interview, 22July 1975. 69. Dl, interview, 21 Mar. 1981. 70.

There is no reason for her to have falsified the month and day of birth, 21 November, which she always celebrated.

On the envelope, someone has written "1904" - but that cannot be accurate since, by December 1904, Arthur Charles Pearson Cooper, referred to as alive in the letter, was dead.

But all other evidence indicates that Ada made no attempt to live in her own flat until Arthur returned from South Africa in 1902. In addition, Mottram describes himself as "nineteen" at this time, and he was not nineteen until 30 October 1902. Mottram is often inaccurate about dates and numbers. He calls himself "twenty-one and a half' (p. 25) when he first met John Galsworthy in Aprill904. But he was twenty-and-a-half at the time. At least four independent sources confirm the fact that Ralph Mottram was born on 30 October 1883. 43. MG, interview, 22 May 1974. 44. D. Barker, p. 64. 45. Dupre, pp. 73-4. 46. Marrot, p. 152. 47.

The first letter demonstrating that Pinker was Galsworthy's agent, from Heinemann to Pinker, is dated I Jan. 1906. Since, however, the letter discusses possible translations of The Country House, soon to appear, and mentions The Man of Property as already published, the dating is clearly a mistake for I Jan. 1907. This letter is in a file of Pinker correspondence at the Houghton Library. 44. Sketch (New York), letter toJBP, II Oct. 1907, Haught. 45.

For example, he placed the Galsworthys at "Holly Lodge" in Hampstead right after Ada's divorce in 1905. The Galsworthys did not live in Hampstead until 1918- and then it was at Grove Lodge on Holly Bush Hill. 23. JG, Diary, 3 Sep. 1916, Evans. 24. JG, Diary, 14 Sep. 1916, Evans. 25.

The copy of the certificate, in his own hand (in Evans and reproduced in Marrot, between pp. 442 and 443), gives the date of the examination as 15 July 1918. But the diary entry, and its literal specificity, "50 years and 343 days" (which would fit 22July), make the 22nd at least as plausible a date. 44. Dl, UJSR, pp. 74-5. 45.

Dupre, p. 241, apparently without reference to the original diary, repeats Marrot's mistake of"slop-sided" and annotates his--with the statement "Galsworthy probably meant Hugh Walpole's Jeremy Trilogy", a state ment for which I can find no evidence. 49.

Anxious to preserve Galsworthy's reputation as someone above using any racial or national stereotype, Marjorie Watts and (according to her) Rudolf Sauter agreed never to publish and perhaps to destroy, certainly to suppress, a letter written by JG to Mrs Dawson Scott that might be regarded, in post-1935 terms, as anti-Semitic. I have not read the letter. Mrs Watts had it in her embarrassed possession as late as 1974 and, apparently, in reference to some squabble within PEN, it contained a single reference about not letting "the chosen people" obtain power over the particular issue. In a political sense, Marjorie Watts and Rudolf Sauter are quite right in maintaining that Galsworthy was not anti-Semitic. And he often objected to the statements and prejudices of writers like Chesterton and Belloc who were. But one can wish that the owners were willing to see the letter published, perhaps showing that, balanced and equitable about international arguments, Galsworthy was also balanced and equit able about prejudice, occasionally sharing something of the standard Notes 597
biases of his time and class. Both earlier (as implicit in the fictional treatment of her) and later (apparent in the work she did to get Leon Schalit, an Austrian Jew, and others into England), Ada was the more conscious and active philo-Semite. 33.

Asher Boldon Wilson, john Galsworthy's Letters, pp. 38-9. Wilson's assertions and judgements, not verifiable elsewhere, perhaps require some measure of scepticism. His long introduction is full of misjudgements, simplicities and mistakes. He states that "marriage laws ... kept John and Ada Galsworthy from becoming man and wife for nearly a decade" (p. 39). He assumes unequivocally that Shaw and Lawrence "turned to Fascism" (p. 57). He identifies the author of Riceyman Steps as Matthew Arnold (p. 151).

his charities to villagers and others, and she once wrote to Rudo that "It is quite a new sensation to tear up begging letters without arry smitings of conscience" (9Jan. 1934, Benedik;;., 8/9), she retained her generosity to the Souter sisters, sending them, especially Joan, large cheques when they married.

There is no evidence in physical similarity, in ideas expressed or in any letter or document that Margaret Morris was involved in the genesis of the character- no evidence that, by 1931, Gals worthy thought of her at all. 38.
