Porfessor Pinney writes: in a letter to his sister in 1932, Rudyard Kipling
speaks of his pleasure in receiving an honorary fellowship at Magdalene and
that he can wear a "decent stuff gown". Pinney ask if this is a recognised
quotation; he has checked, he tells me, Shakespeare - I suspect either
Pepys or pseudo-Pepys.
