My dear Colette

The best date for me would be April 7–9, if Neilson2 doesn’t fill that up. If he does, we must see what can be done. Term here3 begins April 26, and it would have to be before that — if possible, just before. It doesn’t need to <be> a week-end. I wonder how you find Ireland. If it is like O’Flaherty’s House of Gold4 it must be rather grim.

It will be wonderful to be with you again.
