Dear Professor McKeon

Thank you for your kind letter of Jan. 13. Three lectures, on March 20, 21, and 22, suit me very well. Since you are so kind as to suggest it, I should like to arrive on Saturday 18th. I shall be glad to meet students as well as old friends at any time during my stay. I shall feel very grand at the President’s Suite if that is where I shall stay.

Shall I need evening dress? I rather hope not. I don’t know where to get evening shirts laundered now-a-days!

Yours cordially
Bertrand Russell
