Notes, topics or text

"B.R., when in Brixton Prison, summer 1918, asked me to be kind to Wrinch; so I was. I'd a lot of nice garments in those days, which I lent her to wear when she stayed at Garsington. I never kept the letters she wrote me: the last one was dated 1964."

"Nicod was B.R.'s favourite: a gentle creature."

"B.R. didn't tell me he had taken up with Dora and that they were living a 'completely married life' at Newlands. Wrinch was very useful to B.R.: he sometimes used her a messenger to me. She brought him books he needed from Cambridge." "I found the enclosed letter from Wrinch to me" which she didn't think she had. Demos worked for the Greek ambassador.

On the enveloped she states that she is sending a letter from Wrinch.
