BR encloses "some private memoirs" for safekeeping with Unwin.

The enclosure, titled "Private Memoirs", is a 12-leaf typed carbon. Also in file: dictated manuscript of the memoirs, dated 26 December 1955, with additions.

Also in file: early versions of some leaves, with an additional leaf in BR's hand; some leaves are ribbon copies, some are carbons.

This is not the ribbon copy of the final version, which must have been sent to Unwin; it is not known what became of the ribbon copy of the final version, but a photocopy of what is presumed to be the ribbon copy was sent anonymously to Ronald W. Clark, who gave a copy to John G. Slater. The Russell Research Centre has a photocopy of it. BR made all the verbal corrections on both copies of the final version, and the formation of the letters in some cases on the photocopy of the ribbon copy is slightly different from that of the above carbon copy in the Russell Archives.
