'This is likely to become a long letter for I feel there are many things which I should like, & perhaps ought, to say.' Thoughts arising from their conversation yesterday; it gives him a 'tragic feeling' when he sees 'how impossible it is to make myself understood by you'. Describes a 'certain kind of crookedness of my thoughts...' which he thinks prevents Sraffa from following him. Is very anxious not to lose 'the great benefit of your influence on my mind through some sort of obstinacy on my part'. The value of discussion and disagreement. Letter possibly incomplete: no signature.
