Abstract
Yeats beings by telling Macgreevy news of Dolly's work at C & C and reporting on the London production of "The Constant Nymph,"
but the note ends abruptly. Enclosed is a letter from W.B. Yeats that is marked "Copy. Absolutely Confidential" and includes
Yeats's summary of why MacGreevy lost the job of Director to the National Gallery to Thomas Bodkin. A poem beginning "Formal
virile masculine Rimbaud" is also enclosed.
