LH 9/13/42 26. 5. 25 Dear Sir Your letter went to All Souls which I visited for the first time for four years last Sunday! So your wish for a swift answer was not perfectly fulfilled. Yet, please remember that you might have waited from 1922! I haven't written anything since I enlisted, & hope most sincerely that I won't, as long as I remain in the R.A.F. Writing always came to me strongly, & with difficulty, & the result satisfied me as little as it did other people. In barracks it would be quite impossible. Indeed it's very seldom I can bring myself to answer a letter. I enclose yours that your clerks may deliver my note to the right person! Yours sincerely T E Shaw 727
