Dear Russell

I don’t know if Rupert Crawshay Williams has already told you that he and I are organizing a dinner in honour of your birthday. It is to be held on May 18th at the Café Royal at 7.15 pm for 8 o’clock and we are asking the company to wear evening dress (black tie). We have been assured by Lady Russell that you have no other engagements on that evening, as very much hope, therefore, that you will consent to come. There will be two or three short speeches, to which we hope that you will reply.

I am very much looking forward to seeing you then.

Yours sincerely
Freddie Ayer
