COU-08

Dear Mr Coulson,

I suppose it would be superfluous for me to discuss with you library affairs, now that you are such a titled military man. I am not quite certain about your address at Lurgan, but I will get it from the Christmas card which you kindly sent to us and which we all admire very much.

When you are next in town I shall be glad to see you and not on a flying visit to dine with generals. I presume you will be getting some leave, and trust you will enjoy it.

Wishing you a very happy Christmas and bright New Year,

I am,

Yours sincerely,
