Dear Louis,

 

93.

 

Thanks for your card: didn't know Mullion was so far from Penzance—but perhaps you'll drift nearer.

     

I think you took notes of most facts; but I'll summarize. See verso.

     

All well here, but weather unspeakably vile. Busy constructing the longest sentence in the English language: rather fun. I have a staff on the job of rearranging.

     

I miss you badly.

     

Chiswick Press bought by rascals: and stuck for a printer for OLLA. Do find me one!

 

93     93/93.

 

Yours,

 

Aleister.

No news since Sept '42. There must be some one who knows what has (or hasn't) happened.
