Tolkien replies to Simonne d'Ardenne's letter of 10 October. In it he offers various corrections and suggestions for Sweet's Anglo-Saxon Primer and says he doesn't have a high opinion of Mr. Wagner, but provides some critiques for her review, in response to her request for his thoughts about her review of Les poèmes mythologiques de l’Edda, translated by Félix Wagner.
Hammond/Scull noteChronology, p. 237[1] that Tolkien received a letter from d.Ardenne on the 10th asking for his help with emendations and his thoughts on Wagner's translation of Les poèmes mythologiques de l’Edda. *This information connects Tolkien's letter to hers and dates it thus.
