Dear Mr. Buchan

This must be mental
telepathy - for these last
few days I have been
so enjoying reading
'John Burnet of Barns'
- I confess ashamedly for
the first time - and
therefore its author has
been much in my
mind - and now, here
comes your charming
thought of me, which
pleases and flatters me
