(at 17 Stanley Street, Colne, Lancashire), Combe Florey, 28 July,

To a member of Oxford's Quadragesimo Club: "Thank you for your kind invitation to the Quadragesimo Club. If the Trade Unions ... permit, the Life of Ronald Knox will be on sale early next term. Your members should buy copies & study them at leisure ..."

The Quadragesimo Club, named after Pius XI's Quadragesimo Anno (1931), was a Catholic society, so it is unsurprising that they would enquire after Waugh's Life of Knox, which came out the same year as this letter was written.

Very good condition.
