Louis Wain Fact #46:
At one of his last spells of the odd dreams and fixations that permeated his childhood, in 1974 he finally found solace in simple stories detailing the lives of the Native Americans. It impacted him and made him “A child again, roaming the parks, trying to follow tracks over the grass, just as the Indians did.”

Dear Miss Hall,
Referring to our conversation today re Mr J Hannon late editor of map, I have just heard from his sister who thinks it wiser to wait till I hear from her again, as the doctor says that a growth is forming at the back of his eyes & this evidently means cataract possibly blindness.
Yours faithfully
Louis Wain
