West Hackhurst. - Thanks Bessie for 'the most welcome news about Bob [hit by a taxi in London which led to a stay in hospital]'; tried to see him again last Saturday, but had an 'S.O.S from another friend' who was not in fact that ill when he arrived. Is 'wonderful' that Bob has made 'such quick recovery'; he only has one book of Forster's, 'a small green Congreve', which there need be no hurry to return. Bob's London Library books had better go back direct, as Forster will not have the chance to call again.
Seems busier than he wants to be on 'small jobs'. Talks to a Searchlight unit once a week, about ten men, who 'seem uncultivated and cheerful so far'; has also been 'lecturing on Liberty at Southend' and is about to do the same at Gloucester. His household is 'listening in a dazed sort of way to Will Beveridge - indeed the cat is asleep'.
