BR TO H.G. WELLS, 15 MAY 1945
BRACERS 54073. TLS(X). U. of Illinois

3 Babraham Road
Cambridge.
May 15 1945

Dear H.G.,

I am so sorry to hear that you have not been well. I had been looking forward to seeing you. You sent me a very nice cable when I won a partial victory over old Barnes, and my wife assures me that I never replied, which causes me remorse.

My wife is very sorry never to have met you. She says that she has run a temperature whenever the prospect arose. We both hope it may arise again when you are feeling better.

Yours ever,
<signed> Russell.
