(1) Letter from C.S. Lewis to Sir Henry Willink, 24 January 1957
He was one of two trustees of a fund for making gifts to individuals who need help such as undergraduates or disabled College servants or their widows. The fund was in a fairly flourishing condition and the suns of £25 to £100 could be given not too infrequently. If he felt there was anyone that needed funds the College could not give a private letter stating the case could be forwarded to the other trustee. This should not come before the Governing body and his name [Lewis} need not be mentioned at any stage
