Query: RLSK-- McMath (fwd)
Date
Body
In _The Real Life of Sebastian Knight_ (ch.4, p. 31 of my Penguin 1971
edition) I find:

a certain Mr McMath, house agent

("There was, it is true, a cigarette end in a glass ashtray, but it had been
left there by a certain Mr McMath, house agent.")

Does anyone have any ideas about this name?
