More on the letter. I was a bit rushed when I posted earlier. I found the link via the Plaza & my friend Halfir over there pointed out that there is a mention of the letter & its recipient in the Tolkien Companion & Guide:
Quote:
The Tolkien Companion & Guide Vol. Chronology p. 292
2 June 1945 Tolkien writes to an Oxford acquaintance named Maegraith, who has sent several stories he has written and asked for Tolkien's opinion. Tolkien apologizes for not having acknowleged their receipt earlier; he has been busy with endless jobs and examinations, and due to the death or retirement of professors everywhere he is an elector or advisor in half a dozen places and consequently has many letters to write. He now provides three and a half pages of comments on Maegraith's stories.
