Notes, topics or text

She writes about a memoir of BR that Blackwell has asked her to write. She could write "about how he appeared to a child (he was very good with children) in the years 1906-1914; on occasion with my brother [H.T.J. Norton] in Italy, and his simple kindly attitude to me on the rare occasions we met in later years. I was 17 years younger than my brother, and must have been twenty-five years younger than Lord Russell, therefore all I have is the very vivid impression of his friendliness and his eager desire that one should understand and be alive to what [illegible], and share the jokes."
