Nov. 5th. 1916.

My dear Buchan,

I'm off with Blenkiron, Sandy & Hannay - to discover meaning of 'Kasredin, Cancer - v.I' - Bursting with excitement. My duties are at a standstill, & will remain so till Trench p. 307. Mighty good of you to send me the book. Come & see us all again - soon - You would cheer us up - We are getting dull, all except me. I'm at Rotterdam 'pattering the taal!

Yrs ever

W. Fisher
