Dear Henry:

It's boggling. How _could_ The Master do
in His Twentieth Century masterpiece?

Could it be to reawaken a sinful mankind
to mortality? For if even the royal HAK
plumbing can be clogged, we ordinaries
have little to hope for.

So please recoup swiftly, Henry. Therein
lies promise for humanity. Moreover, we
who know you best get trembly and funky
when you're away from the tube overlong.

Betty and I ardently wish you well. Sel-
fishly, really. Perhaps it's so that no-
one is indispensable. But indubitably you
are irreplaceable.

Be a good patient,

FEB 22 1982

Geoffrey Madan (1895-1947) was a connoisseur of the excellent, the original, and the pungent in thought, word, and deed. The son of Falconer Madan, Bodley's Librarian, he had a distinguished career in College at Eton and became a Scholar of Balliol. But the First World War cut into his promise, he was wounded in Mesopotamia in 1916, and the rest of his life was troubled with ill-health. After the war he married and went into the City; but his real talents were shown, and much of his time was spent, in the company of writers and talkers, bankers and politicians, lawyers and churchmen, in London, Oxford and Cambridge, and country houses.

He wrote no book, but he kept Notebooks; he noted what excited or touched his singularly discriminating mind in all he read or heard: curious information, aphorisms, literary and social reminiscences, jokes, anagrams, sidelights on personalities, phrases of pure poetry. Such things he collected and treasured in his Notebooks, as others might collect rare books, silver, or a cellar of good wine (he was a connoisseur of those things too). Above all he was observant of human (particularly English) character, manners, morals, style, tact, and variety. His friends ranged from A. C. Benson to the Churchills and the Asquiths, from Bernard Berenson and Percy Lubbock, to Arnold Bennett and H. G. Wells: they included Mr. Harold Macmillan, who has written a Foreword to this book, and Mr. John Sparrow, who has edited it in collaboration with Mr. J. A. Gere.

This selection from Geoffrey Madan's Notebooks, made by kind permission of his widow and daughter, might be described (in his own words) as 'an anthology of the forgotten sayings of great men, and the great sayings of forgotten men'. Who said of whom, 'At every crisis he crumpled. In defeat, he fled: in revolution, he abdicated: in exile, he remarried'? What was A. E. Housman found doing at 3.30 on a Saturday in August? What book of the Bible has no

Dear Skitch:

This is the first chance I have had to
let you know how much I appreciated your
note at the time of my heart surgery.
It was good to hear from you. My recovery
has been excellent and I am back on a
normal schedule again. Nancy will make
sure that includes looking at some Con-
necticut real estate.
