See her entry and that of Macqueen-Pope in the Oxford DNB. The two items are in fair condition, on aged and lightly-worn paper. Both with the valediction and signature in a large flowing hand, and the second letter also with an autograph postscript. Both are 1p, 4to, and folded three times. ONE (7 July 1952): Addressed to 'Popie my dear' and with autograph valediction 'Yours always / Julia'. She has 'not been too well for over a year', and the previous year her 'stupid heart did foolish things', and she was 'ordered to bed for six weeks or more'. She is still 'not allowed to do too much'. She concludes: 'I suppose it is something to have lived to eighty-four, and it is not so easy to throw off things as when one was young. Still, I have had a very good innings, haven't I, and should be contented. I am.' TWO (19 June 1953): Addressed to 'Dear thoughtful Popie', with autograph valediction 'My love / Julia', with autograph postscript 'Everything seems "touched" in this letter!!!' (As the following indicates she uses the word 'touched' twice.) She was 'very touched by your very sweet and I must say flattering telegram to old Julia'. He was 'a dear to take the trouble to remember the eightyfive-year-old girl and she is always touched by the charming little compliments you pay her'. She hopes they will 'meet again soon at a little luncheon', and will arrange that later on.…

Note: Neilson starred in 'Sweet Nell of Old Drury' by Paul Kester but I have yet to find out which "Nell" Ellen Terry played unless, as seems likely, she's making a play on her own name. SEE IMAGE.…

See her entry and that of her husband Fred Terry (1863-1933), brother of Dame Ellen Terry, and of the recipient of these letters W. J. Macqueen-Pope (1888-1960), the foremost British theatre historian of the twentieth century, in the Oxford DNB. The seven items (Neilson's five letters and carbon copies of two typed letters to her from Macqueen-Pope) are in good condition, lightly aged and creased.

She thanks him for flowers and a 'sweet message', and was sorry he could not be present at the 'cheery tea' (in celebration of her eightieth birthday?): 'Of course I didn't mind you telling the Press. It was darling of you to think that I should have it, but I must confess that I was a little awed and surprised when they arrived in the garden and started to take interviews and photographs. Oh, my dear, you naughty dear! Still, a lovely dear to have thought of this old lady.' THREE: TLS, 20 June 1950. 1p, 8vo. She thanks him again for a 'lovely message' on her birthday.

FIVE: TLS, 28 June 1955. 1p, 8vo. Begins: 'Popie, my Dear, | Thank you both a thousand times for your sweet thoughts of me on the 12th.
