Dear Mr. Boswell

Thank you for your letter of Nov. 14. Since receiving it I have seen Mr. Rowan Davies, and have agreed to do the talks1 you wrote of on the terms you mentioned. I cannot however do any work on them until February or March, owing to pressure of other work.

If you are ever in Cambridge I hope you will come to see me.

Yours sincerely
Bertrand Russell.
