Inhoud en structuur
Bereik en inhoud
Trinity College, Cambridge. - Information about the cathedral status of Christ Church, Oxford. Forgot to mention that where Magdalene now stands in Cambridge 'there was formerly a Benedictine Hostel, with separate buildings or staircases for the different monasteries, Crowland etc'.
Is 'glad that Denis is D. P. H', but 'rejoice[s] on trust', as he doesn't know what the initials stand for 'Devastator of Public Health, or Dispenser of Pharmaceutical Horrors'. Signs off as 'Your affectionate brother'.
Note on back 'Letter about Colleges & Benedictione connection'.
