Evidence: | E. M. Forster to Malcolm Darling, 6 November 1914:
'Just now I sit in the N[ational]. G[allery]. having studied a notice that instructs me to "attack" a petrol bomb with sand instead of water. How am I to know whether it is a petrol bomb? But it will probably spare me the fatigue of considering.' |
