(1) Typed letter from E.W. Smithson, 42, Tilehouse Street, Hitchin, dated 1 Jan. 1920. Refers to Greenwood's review of Mr. Robertson who seems to know "very little about Moliere or French literature" and goes on to discuss the limitations of the the "genius-argument in favour of Stratford rustic." (2) Typed letter from Quincy Ewing, Rector of Christ Churc, Fairlands Farm, Napoleonville, Louisiana, dated April 7, 1924. Ewing has read Is there a Shakespeare problem? and wonders if it's possible to obtain Greenwood's Shakespeare problem restated, despite it being out of print. Inquires after Greenwood's opinion of J. Thomas Looney's Shakespeare identified. (3) Autograph letter from Albert E. Hills, dated November 19, 1927 on letterhead of The Gables, Four Oaks, Warwickshire Thanks Greenwood for acknowledging his letter and explains his "stale information" about Ottocar on the fact that he has only read "The Shakespeare problem restated" and not "Is there a Shakespeare problem?" Refers also to Bacon's Essays, his Henry VII, and Pandosto as well. Includes a postscript "I much enjoy your proof, under Stratfordian logic, that Milton did not write Paradise Lost."
