The four items in fair condition, aged and worn. ONE: Copy of Typed Letter to the editor of the Evening News, signed 'T' or 'P'. 1p., 8vo. Providing another solution, in descriptive notation, of a problem published on 9 October. TWO: Meek's first letter, dated 15 October 1941. 1p., 4to. Headed 'Prob. by Lee'. Replying to Item One he writes: 'It certainly looks as though you have "cooked" the above problem with 1 . B-Kt8. The composer gave several "tries" but he evidently overlooked the move you have found. I will send your discovery to him.' THREE: Meek's second letter, dated 30 October 1941. 2pp., 4to. Demonstrating that his suggested solution to 'problem by Shaw' fails. 'Capture or checking key-moves are usually regarded as a bad feature in a problem unless the subsequent play is of such a character as to justify such a move. The judges evidently thought this was the case in the other problem by Shaw which you refer to'. Concludes by informing him that 'Mr. Lee [.] admits the "cook," of course, and says that it escaped a good many people besides himself'. FOUR: Meek's third letter, dated 4 November 1941. Addressed by hand from '"Evening News" Chess'. 2pp., 12mo. Headed 're Prob. by Shaw'. Briefly restating the contents of Item Three, which the recipient has not received.
