Miscellaneous letters to Helen Fox, 1933-1945

by my long silence, and too long letter breaking that silence, I should like to hear from you, and know how you and yours are getting along.  I wonder how your fish do in the summer - suppose the water practically boils in their tank, poor dears.
Haven't heard from Dora Dykins since Christmas - the world's worst correspondent.  All the same, it is really rather remarkable that you two should keep up correspondence with me at all.  We scarcely got to know each other in Paris (all three exhibiting socalled "British" hostility to strangers) and our friendship seems held by a tenuous gossamer threat.  But it does hold, and I'm glad.
