Dear Professor Starr,
We both thank you for your kind card, and wish you every happiness in 1950.
On Tuesday morning we hope to drink your health at the ‘Bird and Baby’: pity you can’t be there to join us!

Yours sincerely,

My dear Sarah
Yes, I did indeed get the mats and was only waiting to be sure of the right address before acknowledging them. They were so like lino-cuts that if I weren’t such an unhandy and messy person I wd. have been tempted to ink them and try making a few prints. Thanks very much indeed.
I’m glad you like the Ballet lessons. I’m just back from a week end at Malvern and found an awful pile of letters awaiting me—so I am scribbling in haste. But I must tell you what I saw in a field—one young pig cross the field with a great big bundle of hay in its mouth and deliberately lay it down at the feet of an old pig. I could hardly believe my eyes. I’m sorry to say the old pig didn’t take the slightest notice. Perhaps it couldn’t believe its eyes either. Love to yourself and all,
Your affectionate
Godfather

Dear Miss Bodle,
Yes. Charles Williams often used the words ‘holy luck’.
(#ulink_35ca3f04-60db-5e26-8443-611d46c32dfd) Compare Spenser ‘It chanced, Almighty God that chance did guide’.
(#ulink_47c18588-f92b-55d6-bf84-a95fc205a3af) Bless you.
Yours sincerely

Dear Sister Penelope
The name of the graduate looks like KNIONAN, but this can hardly be right! It is embarrassing that as my own hand gets worse I also get worse at reading everyone else’s.
I am very sorry you have had no luck yet with the M.G.
(#ulink_8590db63-28cf-5d99-8ed1-c804c4efbdbc) But many a book that afterwards succeeded has been rejected by several publishers.
I read Butterfield and gave it exactly the same mark as you; and am glad of your support, for most even of my Christian friends think it bad.
(#ulink_666a6b62-23e8-5426-bb49-47a591a5cb21) All good wishes for St Bernard.

My book with Professor Tolkien—any book in collaboration with that great but dilatory and unmethodical man—is dated, I fear, to appear on the Greek Kalends!
(#ulink_9dc3da86-f60f-5201-99ea-a226e712b7ed)
I don’t quite know about those American veterans. Nearly all the books we shd. want to send are published in U.S.A. and there is a bad book famine in England.
Term begins on Sat. and there is a cruel mail today, so I am suffering incessant temptation to uncharitable thoughts at present: one of those black moods in which nearly all one’s friends seem to be selfish or even false. And how terrible that there shd. be even a kind of pleasure in thinking evil. A ‘mixed pleasure’ as Plato wd. say, like scratching?
Yours sincerely
C. S. Lewis
Britain had been so weakened by the effects of the Second World War (1939-1945) that, despite American assistance, rationing was still in effect when Queen Elizabeth II came to the throne in 1952. Clothes rationing ended in 1949, but food continued to be rationed until 1954. For this reason many of Lewis’s friends in the United States, such as Edward A. Allen, were still sending him food parcels.
