Summary
Saying "Very many thanks for cheque. Hallam wrote to me direct. I have been there calling once last summer, and I suppose they knew my address. / Ruddy / P.S. It ought to be a first class book for the young men. I wish you could send me 'The Admiral." / P.P.S. Gosse asked me to go to Hedda Gabler last Monday. This is why my style is curt and severe at present date of writing."
