Notes and topics
Re the three Texans who read Principia Mathematica; reply on verso of Ashford's letter.
BR doesn't remember their names: "I think they were all only Texans by courtesy as, when I met them, they were students at the Rice Institute." He conjectured that "presumably they had ceased to entertain any inorthodox opinions which they may have held in youth."
