Dear Miss de Vere
It was interesting to hear from you — of course I remember you and Roger vividly.
I am doubtful as to your chances in the U.S. but I was not in art circles and cannot tell at all what chances you would have. If you know any one to whom to apply, I think it would be worth your while to inquire what they think. I am sorry I don’t know enough to be of any use to you.
John is in the Navy, Kate in the Ministry of Information — both are in London, as he is being taught Japanese. Their address is 72 Dartmouth Rd, N.W.2.
With all good wishes,
Yours sincerely
Bertrand Russell.
