Gollancz thanks Patricia for her letter of January 16. Ten minutes' time is satisfactory but the subject leaves him "a little doubtful" and hopes to discuss it over the weekend. He asks if Canon Raven is on the platform, as he would attend if asked.

Gollancz is "grieved when people dislike me—spiritually when they dislike me because they know what I stand for, intellectually when they dislike me because they think I stand for something for which I don't, and emotionally always."
