This extract appears in a letter from Adam to Blackwell, 1969/03/04, record 121784. She is in the Canary Islands and her letters from BR are in England, thus she is working from memory.

"In the last letter I had from Bertie, handwritten very shakily, he mentioned the wish to see me, saying 'have (sic) the world wants to shoot me, and the other half wants to deify me. I hope I see you before the first half gets its way."

The date is taken from her letter to Blackwell, 10 May 1969, in which she says a copy is enclosed (it wasn't).
