"I did not tell Frank [Russell] to approach a solicitor; I merely said I would not act as his intermediary with you, and if he needed an intermediary he must get some one else." The letter quotes the text of a letter BR has sent to someone that Dora apparently knows. See record 98853 for the entry based on the quoted text.

The letter's provenance is a legal file. The reason for the letter being in this file is uncertain. It is folded and soiled, and thus was probably sent.
