" Q " AND PROFESSOR MACNEILE DIXON
Sut,—In Lady Oxford's characteristically whole-hearted appreciation of the great writer just deceased, she links his name with that of Professor W. Macneile Dixon as having added so much to the delight of readers. Large numbers of people will, no doubt, echo her words. Professor Dixon has always the revealing touch, and has led his students through the Ivory Gate into the enchanted realms of poetry and literature generally with an insight and sympathy which must always remain a happy memory. I had the good fortune to be a hearer in Belfast, many years ago. Sir William Y. Darling, Lord Provost of Edinburgh, in a recent broadcast in the series " Books Which Have Influenced Me," descanted upon one of the Professor's works and recommended it with unrestrained emphasis.
