F. E. Pollard in the chair.<br/>
1. A card of greetings was read from Janet Rawlings, Beth and Victor

5. Howard Smith introduced the subject of Coleridge by telling us something of his
life and character. It was a sad story of real genius & ability frustrated &
unfulfilled by an entire lack of the powers of application and concentration, of a
brilliant conversationalist, a nature generous & affectionate, and a man extremely
fortunate in his friends.
F. E Pollard spoke briefly of Coleridge’s poetical importance & of some of the
sources of his ideas and images – sources not always acknowledge[d]. And
readings from his poetry were then given as follows:-
<br/>Parts of The Ancient Mariner read by AB. Dilks
<br/>Part I of Christabel [read by] J. K. Taylor
