Dear Céleste

Why not escape the dilemma by calling me by my Xtian name? Failing that, I prefer Mr. Your letter reached me just as I was starting for Boston, and I hadn’t even time to telephone. I am sorry I couldn’t come, but I look forward to seeing you later. Love to Jackie.

Yours sincerely
Bertrand Russell.
