From poet Bill [William] Scammell (b. 1939) [a friend and admirer of Nicholson who in 1984 would edit Between Comets, a collection of poems and essays to commemorate Nicholson's seventieth birthday]. He refers to: Nicholson's congratulations on Scammell's receipt of an award; the award ceremony where he met V.S. Pritchett; poet Basil Bunting, who has been honoured after a lifetime of neglect; Yvonne Nicholson's illness; and a recent meeting with poet Matt Simpson (he comments, "I see you're in danger of founding a School").
