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 and the College and says inches of bookshelf space was the important factor. In light of the confidential nature of their arrangements he asks how he should respond to any other College offering him a Fellowship. He was a child in such matters.
