"The preface is signed 'Arabella Atkyns', which the B.M. catalogue says is a pseudonym. In it she states that the medical portion, which is much larger than the cookery, is taken from a common-place book of her brother who was a physician. It may be mentioned that she is the first lady who apologizes for her boldness in venturing to treat certain maladies which a lady would hardly be expected ti include. The cookery part is well arranged, the medical part is full of horrors. The treatment for appendicitis is to 'apply a live puppy to the naked belly' and follow up with a cataplasm of rotten apples or of 'sheeps-dung boil'd with milk'."Oxford, English Cookery Books. Oxford, p.71; Maclean, p.49; Bitting, p.550; Cagle, 673; Pennell, p.150; Simon, 658.

In one set of two SIGNED letters from Harold E. Goad dated May 1922, the poet goes into detail about how he wants to change certain lines of his 'Spring's Sacrifice' poem as it had been published in 'The Oxford Book of English Mystical Verse' in its 'not quite finished form'. He then goes on to write which alterations he wishes to be made and asks Frederick Nicholls to make these changes as used in his musical version.
