Dear Miss Kohler

I will do the article on Shaw as soon as I have worked through earlier obligations, which will probably be about six months from now.1 I should not wish it published during his life-time. If he dies any time soon, I will write it at once. As your fee is not large, I assume you will not object to simultaneous publication in England.

Yours very sincerely
Bertrand Russell.
