On verso of Portnow's letter. "I should not worry too much if I were you about limited mathematical ability. Many most eminent physicists had no mathematical ability—e.g., Faraday and Rutherford. I think mathematics is more useful to a philosopher than to a 'pioneering chemist', but I expect that when you get away from exams you will find yourself unexpectedly competent at the rather peculiar kind of mathematics that stimulates philosophical imagination."

"Thank you very much for sending me Demain le Soleil se Levera and for the very kind things that you say on the accompanying card.
