Dear Sir Humphrey, I thought you might be interested in the enclosed rather rare little Pamphlet [asterisk with a holograph note below, "Printed, despite the misleading imprint, by your own distinguished house at Oxford, who have made a good job of it, don't you think?"] about a remote ancestor of Peter Wimsey's. You will see a certain strain of eccentricity runs in the family, which may explain some of his lordship's caprices! With best wishes for Christmas and the New Year, from Dorothy L. Sayers.
