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].

He was surprised and apologetic that the master has not received a reply to his letter of 24 June [in which he formally offered him a Fellowship at Magdalene] as he had written a draft and given it to his secretary to be sent by return. He thanks him and his future colleagues. He would be very happy to present himself for a degree by incorporation. It seemed ungracious that he did not come over to Cambridge at once but vivas did not finish until the end of the month and he was due to leave for Ireland on 5 August. He looked forward to coming over when the dear old thing Ordinary Life began again in October and to beginning an acquaintance which he hoped would become a friendship.
