Yes,I know about that Stanford. Have often seen his books reviewed/advertised. B and B paid me up to date the other day, the cheque having been sent before the arrival of my demand. Next time I shall threaten to invite Walter G with his gun to visit Artillery Mansions. And you can call on Col. (?) Stanford. If they fail,there1 s always Captain xxx Fox. Freddy,as you surmise,will probably beat me to the matrimonial bedpost. He’s a great believer in marriage - or was. Sooner him than me. Agree with yr remarks on the new Govt and P.M. What an inflationary price we shall pay for the settlement with the miners. I see xxx wily old Uncle Harold has handed over N.I. to a wily Welshman,Merlyn Rees,a Welsh Baptist who will be more than a match for Big Ian. In his first speech in Belfast Rees made a crack at Ian--a joke accusing him of Popery,no less! This Parliament,with all the strange bods there, ought to be entertaining if nothing else. Mrs. Wechsler tells me her son,who runs a Bond St. Gallery,made £60,000 last year - xxxxxxxxxx Text Saturday, August 20, 2016 - 11:10
