BR TO LIVERIGHT PUBLISHING CORPORATION, 4 OCT. 1930
BRACERS 135588. TLS. McMaster
Proofread by K. Blackwell


<letterhead>
Beacon Hill School
Harting,
Petersfield,
4th Oct. 1930.

Messrs. H. Liveright,
61, West 48th Street,
NEW YORK CITY.

Dear Sirs,

When you send me the £500 which is due to Beacon Hill School on the publication of The Conquest of Happiness, would you be so kind as to send it either direct to me or via the Westminster Bank, at Petersfield, not the Midland Bank, which you formerly employed? The Westminster Bank is the one at which the school account is kept.

Yours faithfully,
<signed> Bertrand Russell.
