BR TO HERMAN LISSAUER / MODERN FORUM, 27 APR. 1954

Dear Mr. Lissauer,

Thank you for your letter of March 20. It is kind of you to invite me to address your Modern Forum and it would give me much pleasure to renew acquaintance with you and Mrs. Lissauer, but I have decided that I am too old for lecture tours and that it would be unwise to undertake any further journeys of this sort.

With all best wishes,

Yours sincerely,
<signed> Bertrand Russell
