Darling

I have only a few moments to write. Your dear letter which I got when I came here was a great joy to me. Mrs W. is worried but thinks things will be all right — and I feel certain they will be. I have also been talking work with Whitehead — there is a lot to discuss. Alys and Logan are coming here Monday morning, so I shall disappear then. Dearest, Dearest, I am longing to be with you. I don’t feel anything else in the world matters except that. But how I should get on if we had to give each other up I don’t know — I should manage somehow no doubt, but it would not be gay. — Yes Dearest I am a better man for having known you — and that can’t be taken from us. I love you love you, utterly, with all my strength — there is nothing else for me in the world. Goodbye Dearest I must stop.

Your
B.
