BR TO SIMON AND SCHUSTER / WALLACE BROCKWAY, 7 SEPT. 1944
BRACERS 107244. ALS. McMaster
Proofread by K. Blackwell


<letterhead>
TRINITY COLLEGE,
CAMBRIDGE.
Sp. 7, 1944

Dear Brockway

I have just received your letter of Aug. 28. I corrected all proofs at once and mailed them to you some time ago. They take time, as the Censor has to read them all on each journey, poor fellow!

Yes, “Book XI, Chap. XX” is correct. The chapters in each book are numbered afresh, so “Chap XX” by itself is no reference.

All well with us. I enjoy being back in Trinity.

Yours sincerely
Bertrand Russell.
