I’ve got 1931 for Savage Messiah and when did Jim resign from the Tate? ’36. So it was near the end of his time at the Tate that he was writing that book, which will have added to his burdens. Helen helped a great deal with the book. I mean, in every department, Jim always got a lot of common sense and encouragement from Helen although at the same time she sometimes… she got very fed up and hard pressed by the sort of things she was made to do and she must have been very exhausted and often longed for a more normal life and yet she knew he wouldn’t be happy living a normal life. She was totally loyal but at the same time suffered a good deal.
