My dear Buchan,

Thank you so much! I am very grateful! It is clearly necessary for me that I must go abroad for a short time now that the children are back at school, but I will return for Easter, and it is my intention then to resume every activity.

Always yours,

H.B. [Hilaire Belloc]

I did not write for days. I am so deeply touched by your letter - my dear fellow! It is with great difficulty that I send even these few words.
