it last time doesn't seem to know very much about it (what with saying that scales and drawing paper on rolls were not obtainable, sending me note books and not knowing what stencil plates are-)

1 tracer i.e. a steel point on a handle for use instead of a pencil when tracing 2 each Remington "Envoy" and Underwood red/black portable typewriter ribbons (for me) 2 oil pressure lamps + the one end in the kitchen is worn out 2 dog collars and chains (bits of rope are dangerous)

Very many thanks for all the trouble that you have taken to get the various things I have asked for. Forgive me if this note seems abrupt or otherwise lacking in smoothness. I am in a hurry and my mind is on many other things.

On - my baggage has arrived from Ceylon, including my camera. Could you send me a dozen roll films ordinary 24x34 Verichrome, please.
