Scope and content

Typed letter (signed) from C.S. Lewis to Sir Henry Willink about the offer to take the chair of Medieval and Renaissance English.

Writes to Sir Henry in his capacity as Master of Magdalene College [he was also Vice-Chancellor of the University].

Thanks him for the formula which he would use [Willink suggested the form of words he should use if offered a Fellowship at another College]. A professorial Fellowship at Magdalene was exactly what he would like best. He should like to remain under the same patroness [when was at Magdalen College, Oxford].
