I am writing on the road: I have been giving a lecture. Yesterday (Saturday) I read about the amnesty[459]. We are all dreaming of a journey. If you are going home, stop by us first. We shall talk.

I would very much like to give you a commission in England to find out quietly and reliably whether I could travel through.

I shake your hand.

Your V. U.
