Cogswell, Sussex. Dear Uncle Alfred. I am in a desperate position. A lecture has been sprung upon me, and I have got to give it very shortly and it is to be about VVater-power. There seems to be very few books on the subject and even if I had them I would be unable to decide which to include in the lecture. Do you think you can tell me all you know on the subject l I l? I am going back to school to-day and the lecture is very soon. If you are able to write any of it down fairly soon, please will you send it to XY. H. Smith, School House. Fotheringhams. Bruncastle. Gloucestershire, Sussex, England tetc.l If you cannot do it soon please do not bother about it at all because the lecture will be over. XYith lots of love from Billy. Apparently we are not the only ones who have difficulties about speeches l-Ed.
