Hi All,

It was Raymond Mortimer who first lineated the *O *passage that VSW printed
in her 1945 anthology. The reference for his review is:

"Mrs and Mr Strachey." *Bookman* 68.6 (Feb. 1929): 625-29.

Most of Mortimer's review is reprinted in Majumdar and McLaurin's *VW: The
Critical Heritage*, 238-43.

Best,
Emily
