Merioneth.1
28 September, 1959.

Dear Frau Schlick,

Thank you very much for sending me the work by your husband which I shall read as soon as I possibly can. As you know, I had a high opinion of him as a philosopher and it is interesting to see a posthumous work of his.

Yours sincerely,
<signed> Bertrand Russell
