Summary
Thanking him for his hospitality at Christmas, writing that he pleased to learn that the "[John] Martin book has been well received", and hoping for "the same and even better" for the "the other one"; mentioning that he has seen "the Picassi" and Westminster images, as well as "the basic English man" C.K. Ogden, who he describes as "a crank of the first water; but he has so many odd notions and hobbies that he has plenty to talk about".
