so I am having a brief respite.
Last night I went home early and went
for a long walk in the veldt. I had a magnificent
gallop in the dusk along a track where I knew
there were no holes. It is splendid swinging
along in the cool veldt air, with the sky
above the colour of a sloeberry, except for
a great fiery sea in the West.

I am really enjoying Bryce's 'Studies
in History & Jurisprudence'. I rather recommend you
to read it for the I.C.S, as it contains
a good many of the questions on the borderland
of history & law, which they sometimes set.

Love to all & best wishes for a
pleasant holiday,

Your affectionate brother
