Gilson also mentions Tolkien's "adventures and encounters with the arms of the law" and asks that he give a full account of it when the TCBS next meet.Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. Sources of Inspiration, p. 20[2]
Tolkien will reply that he is in Warwick, likely until 28 June or 1 July but Hammond and Scull note that Tolkien did attend King Edward's School Sports (see entry for 27 June-1 July 1913, 9. 50).
