The auction was held 9 November 2022. Lot 258, to which this letter belonged, was sold for £11,000. The auction house states: "The letters were collected by Sheila Zinkin who acted as Bertrand Russell's secretary in 1951.... The collection has remained in the family until now."

Woolf sends BR a book in which she has written about her great-grandfather Pattle. (BR then mentioned the book, Cameron's Victorian Photographs of Famous Men and Fair Women [1926] in The Amberley Papers, 1: 94n.)
