TO A.R.Chambers, (con)
You get tired of London, let me know. Sol is the Station, th
e State is alone in a dip in the moor, very quiet. W
very fine. A mile from camp, fortified with a large
bicycle, three chairs a 100 yards cra...phones of brier, a
table. Man: windows, oak-trees, an ilex, birch, fir, and...
Avoids hanger. Deer. Purejbirds to look at. No tramps except what
a ...ooter & the char ...ouse & canteens provide. Milk. Turf fuel...
for the picki... up. I don't sleep ...rre, but come out 4.30 p.m
till 10 p.m. nearly every evening. I dream; I read
by the fire. We play Diplomacy & ...ords by myself on a box.
Sometimes one or two Tank-corps-pints arrive & laste ... me....
But few any of them dare for abstract ......s. If you are i...
be very much alone all day.
Nearly I came to look for you the other day. Wells
(a novelist, H.G., nearly famous) was asked out to Lunnon
for a week -time, & tho'ofd his ...ries as I returned by
motor-bike. Only the poor beast wen't rumble well, & I was in
...ual, & was henzined.
