Notes and topics

BR was a friend of Cary's father, Blair Brenan. She encloses a copy of a letter (record 121529) that her uncle, Gerald Brenan, wrote to her father. Cary recollects visits by BR in the 1930s. "I remember my mother returning amused but rather shaken because she had taken Russell's two children (by Dora) to the Caledonian market ... and they had insisted in buying swords, which they had fought with on the way back in the tube train."

Peter came to tea. The last time BR visited he was "irritated by a doctor my parents shared their house with, arguing over some mathematical problems with Russell, that Russell was too tired to explain."
