Writing to his son Christopher, Tolkien says how delighted he is to have received his letter, although he doesn't expect them. He, Edith, and Priscilla had been out that day to Abingdon, Culham, Appleford, Wallington, and Shillingford, returning home via Dorchester and Nuneham.
He says that C.S. Lewis and his brother have read The Hobbit and would like to read more.
He asks Christopher to pray for him and “mummy” at Mass and inquires if he has been to Communion.
