BR TO ELIAS BREDSDORFF, 3 JUNE 1946
BRACERS 57979. TLS. McMaster
Proofread by K. Blackwell


Trinity College,
CAMBRIDGE.
3rd June, 1946.

Elias Bredsdorff, Esq.,
130, Queen’s Gate,
London, S.W.7.

Dear Mr. Bredsdorff,

I most certainly remember you very well indeed, and I have often wondered what happened to you during the war, as your political sentiments, when I knew you, were not such as the Nazis would like.

It will be a great pleasure to see you if and when you come to Cambridge. I shall be absent from June 13th until early in October, so unless your visit to Cambridge is before the former date I cannot see you until the autumn. But I hope that when the time comes you will write again and arrange a meeting time. I shall be interested to hear what happened to you during the war.

Yours sincerely,
Bertrand Russell.
