This letter, written in Paris and dated 10 July 1930, is addressed to "Mr. Knoll," who was apparently a young admirer of Le Gallienne's works, particularly his "lines on war." Le Gallienne writes: "I value your appreciation the more because you are so young, for it gives me hopes that the young men of your generation will resist to the utmost the foolish 'call to arms', which alas!, for all the tragic lessons of the last 'Great War', seems all too likely to come."
