Thought that Volume VII of CMH was still along way in the future but is pleased to write a chapter on Edward III and Richard II as agreed. Has changed her specialism recently to that of social and economic history so if there were chapters on this aspect she would be happy to write them. Asks for information regarding the scope of the chapter.

As has now become a diplomat will now find it difficult to contribute chapter on Bohemia as agreed before the War. Has colleagues who could complete it and would guarantee the work if this is acceptable. Would like to know if the piece sent in 1914 was ever published.

Is honoured to be asked to contribute a chapter to CMH. Is slightly apprehensive because, though he feels his knowledge of Western Europe is adequate, his knows little of Eastern Europe and feels that this is important to the history. Would like a frank statement.

Is taken aback to be offered the chance to write for CMH. Hopes he will not disgrace himself. Has been looking for some new work so the chance to write is opportune. Is grateful to JRT for help in the past.
