With a brief and breezy ALS from Geoffrey Keynes "My dear Jack, alias Proviss, This has just come from Sidgwick. It is not published until 21st, so you mustn't sell it before that date however hard up you are. I think it looks quite nice." The recipient is likely to be J.C. Squire, editor of the London Mercury - is "Proviss" a mis-spelt reference to Magwitch in Great Expectations, who uses the pseudonym "Provis" when he returns unofficially from Australia?
