My Dear Tom

Willy was at Glendalough when your letter came, but he saw Russell some five days afterwards and found that all had been already done — the poem in the last number, and the review given to Starkie to do. So I hope all is well? Your name wasnt brought in as having specially written.

Russell's been pretty tired out and seedy and is going away next week for a holiday — his first for two years — that business of the libel case took a lot out of him.

At the moment I am up to my ears — all stupid things to do that I neednt really have done and so on, "sister, why do we do these things," as Toller remarks in the one good sentence at the end of "Masses and Men".

How's life, and what are you doing in the near future? Lunning I suppose, for a bit in the summer?

Yours

George.
