Belgium, Hail! an interview on the psychology of England and
Germany, and a visit to London, where he saw Anthony Hope
about the said interview, went to see When Knights were Bold , and
left The Little Man for the star comedian Jimmy Welsh to read.

He also arranged to take charge of the Belgian painter Leon de
Smet and his wife and family, whom he took down to Devonshire,
and to whom he was indefatigably good throughout the war period.
