To p.78 this has general observations on health, diet, relaxation, domestic life etc. but the remainder consists of short (half page or less mostly) questionnaire responses by eminent men and women and centenarians regarding diet, alcohol, tobacco, work hours, sleep hours, recreations, sports and health, these also include their age which tells us that these all date from 1927-1929 (after sampling 6 of the best known). They included Augustus John, George Bernard Shaw, David Low (the cartoonist), Compton Mackenzie, Baden Powell and Oliver Lodge. Another listing mentions an inscription dated 1930 and this fits with ages given. These responses however seem to tell us as much about their attitude to Henslowe's exercise as themselves.
