Extent1 item
Date1924
DescriptionLetter written from 2 Morpeth Mansions, S. W. 1. on 12 March 1924 about a letter which he sent to the Sunday Times concerning the authorship of two lines of poetry. 'Others, I doubt not, if not we, the issue of our toil shall see' which were the last words spoken by Chamberlain's father in a public speech. He wonders if it was a poem written by Newbolt or by Pember Reeves who wrote it into a flyleaf of a book on New Zealand pioneers.
