[3 March 1935]

Dear Imogen

Thank you very much for your very nice letter.  Those lectures are only what I have been spouting for the last 20 years – Now they’ve appeared in print I shall never be able to spout them again.2
I am so glad to hear from you & from herself that Isobel is getting on well.
Love from

Uncle Ralph
