(Harriet Shaw, political activist and journal editor, 1876-1961) 2 Typed Letters signed to Matthew Hodgart, 4pp., 8vo, Oxford & Saffron Walden, 13th January 1957 & 17th February 1959, thanking him for his letter and the typescript of a book he had written, "You mention Mr Slocum's James Joyce Bibliography and I would just like to say that his claim on page 145 that I had prepared a list for the compilers of that book occupying 21 pages of typescript setting out the contents of the Finnegans Wake manuscripts given to me by Mr Joyce was most certainly incorrect. It was not made for those compilers, though I did let Mr Slocum have a carbon copy of the list I made", and the fate of the manuscripts in her possession, "I had not at that time decided which library to give the manuscripts to, inclining for a time to the National Library of Ireland - but later coming to the conclusion that they would be more generally accessible in the British Museum", folds. *** Harriet Shaw supported James Joyce financially for many years and continued to do so after they had a major disagreement at her reservations over Finnegans Wake.
