TCG Letter #1653

Tolkien writes to Monckton,^{Member of the Ad Eundem dining club.[1]} suggesting dates for the next dinner in the hopes that Monckton can attend and add more weight to the Oxford side. He had delayed a dinner with very short notice and hopes to make amends by giving Monckton advanced notice of new dates.
