The Arraignment of Phryne was originally intended as part of a complete entertainment that Herbert Farjeon was devising in 1944. Wishing to include a short opera, classical in theme but modern in treatment, he and his sister. Eleanor, looked about for a suitable subject. They finally selected the trial of Phryne, the beautiful Boeotion courtesan. Phryne was brought to trial by a discarded lover, and charged with corrupting Athenian morals. The eloquent defence of her current beau failed to convince the judges, and things looked black indeed. Gambling desperately, Phryne decided to stake everything on a last chance-and won.
The libretto complete, Herbert and Eleanor Farjeon invited Geoffrey Wright to set it to music. The finished version was played over to Herbert Farjeon shortly before his death in 1945 and is now presented for the first time. l. david Harris

Talk by R. W. Ketton-Cremer
Twelve volumes of the Yale Edition (edited by W. S. Lewis ) of Horace Walpole's ' Correspondence ' have already been published in this country. It is probable that the edition will extend to at least fifty volumes, and it is unlikely to be completed before 1970. R. W. Ketton-Cremer, himself a biographer cf Walpole. describes the plan of the edition and discusses the letters still to be published. He also gives an account of W. S. Lewis's unique collection, at Farmington, Connecticut, of hundreds of letters to and from Walpole, and innumerable other relics from Strawberry Hill
