Letters from Henry Luxmoore:
/1 Desirability of forming a collection of records of old buildings; drawings of Eton subjects by Philip Norman; concern at condition of Egyptian mummy portraits, 27 July 1911
/2 Suggests that while scaffolding is up, the outside irons should be replaced on the east window and that the ends should be sheathed in lead or copper, 24 June 1912
/3 Living of Worplesdon; hopes that proposals to remove Cloister railings will be dropped; relations with Society for Protection of Ancient Buildings, 7 Oct 1912
/4 Living of Worplesdon; does not think Gerald Marshall will apply, 9 Oct 1912
/5 Heartbroken at news that Cloister railings are to be removed. Had hoped that since there was no money to help the parish church or the choristers, or extend 'our exclusive benefits' to middle class education after spending £5000 on 'sacrificing College buildings to a Provost's magnificence', this cruelty was impossible, 6 Feb [1912]
/6 Suggests method of getting rid of knife-boards in College Chapel, 2 Dec [1909]
