BRACERS Record Detail for 121402
To access the original letter, email the Russell Archives.
BR agrees to an interview about old age, as a request on Dr. Gumpert's behalf by Edward C. Aswell.
Gumpert published "A Second Prime of Life—After 70" in The New York Times Magazine, 8 July 1951, p. 14, with this comment on BR: he is "preparing his autobiography at 79 and complaining that he is easily tired because he cannot walk more than five miles at a time."

Dear Sir
Mr. Edward C. Aswell tells me that you wish to see me in the course of a study of old age. I shall be glad to see you at above address almost any time in January or February. If you come to London perhaps you will ring me up to fix a time. Richmond is a suburb.
Yours truly
Bertrand Russell
