| 119789 | Re photographing BR with the bust of Socrates and the "little head" of Uncle John (Lord John). |

| 119813 | Flora's relative Anthony "especially enjoyed the talk he had with Bertie". |

| 119816 | Flora would like to see edith at once, but not today. |

| 119819 | Flora asks if there is any news from "Cousin Humbug" [Ian, the Duke of Bedford]. |
| 119820 | About Maud, Raymond, and the humbug (or better, the Mountebank). |

| 119823 | This appears to be a plan to revise portions of *9 of Principia Mathematica, following the critique by Samuel Jacobsohn (document .1109337a, record 4175), on the verso of whose letter Wrinch's 3-part note is found. #1 is "Introduction of New Definitions Necessary" with the proposal that they be **9.081.082. |
| 119824 | Harding, whose surname is followed by what seems to be "-Akeels" in her beautiful but difficult hand, thanks BR for the "light and comfort" that his Why Men Fight has brought to her soul. |
