4 Belmont Villas, Donnybrook, Dublin.—Thanks him for his letter and for seeing to the trunk, which they [he and Sybil] do not expect to arrive yet. Has seen Professor Ditchburn and some other mathematical staff, and written to the tutors, in the hope of getting coaching work at Trinity College, Dublin. His sister Ruth, who is in the Library, knows some of them, and his relationship to Creed Meredith may also prove useful. They will be more comfortable when their trunks arrive. Is glad to hear that Smith has been moderately fortunate in the person billeted on him. He and Sybil have found some useful methods of blackout. Smith’s ‘Dominican suggestion’ sounds good. The atmosphere in Dublin is ‘untotalitarian’ and though there are many strong opinions there is no uniformity. Smith’s learning of Czech may stimulate Meredith to start on Irish. Aubrey [Clark] is prospering but busy. They have not heard from Bullard, but his way of life will probably not have altered much, ‘apart from having fewer god children to call on, and fewer female friends to advise on dress’.
