216 L.A.A. Bty. R.A., 151 Castle Boulevard, Nottingham. - Thanks Trevelyan very much for lending him "Pinocchio" [in Italian, as requested in 4/117] which is just right as he knows the story; still thinks the easiest Italian is Dante's. Is going to try Margaret Armstrong's biography of Trelawney: knows he was 'an awful old rascal' but Shelley liked him. Is lecturing to the troops on current affairs; finds it amazing 'how indifferent they are to news of any kind': none of them had heard of the Atlantic Charter.
