BR TO LION PHILLIMORE, [Feb. 1913]
BRACERS 79329. ALS. McMaster
Proofread by K. Blackwell


Trin Coll1, 2

Dear Lion

I am sorry, I am so busy I can’t manage to see you in London at present I am afraid. Perhaps when Term is over I shall be able to. I wish you were able to come here. No, I don’t think I’ll join the Cont. Art Soc. It’s not much use if one can’t afford to buy, which I can’t.

Yrs ever
B Russell
