Includes a paragraph on page 138. "Pound was an old man doubting the worth of what he had done... I mentioned to him casually that Henry Moore as a young sculptor had taken comfort from Pound's book on Gaudier-Brzeska... He was moved almost to tears; it was something he had not known before. I didn't have the idea that he knew Moore's work....but he knew Moore's reputation and he was touched by new evidence that he had done something worth while... 'There is no doubt that I have been some use to some people'.""
