Garden Corner, West Road, Cambridge. - Knows that the death of [Donald] Tovey will be a particular 'grief and loss' to Bob; he and Janet send sympathy. Regarding Tovey himself, George fears that 'we live in days when anyone of our generation who dies is lucky': never had 'any real hope for the world' after the war broke out, but it is going even worse than he feared; there is however no choice but to fight on. Was a 'hideous and fatal folly' to defy 'great enemy powers' without arming likewise, but they must 'now make the best of it'.
