Dear Peter:
I have received my copy of the program of the Moscow meeting, and have been able to verify your statement to me that you had two long-dead collaborators in the work that you reported on, including one recipient of the Nobel Prize.
Mamma and I hope to see you and Julia and the children soon. Our schedule calls for us to leave Montreal on BOAC Plight 568 at 10:00 and arrive in London at 9:30 AM, Oct. 19*. We are scheduled then to leave for Montpellier on the 24th.
If your house is now fixed up, and you are planning to keep us during these days, there is no need for you to make any arrangements for our visit. Otherwise, would you reserve twin-bedroom with bath for us at the Russell Hotel? The reservation should be for the period mentioned above.
I have written a paper on the structure of graphite, involving some novel arguments. I am looking forward to talking with you about this structure, and also about the work that you have been doing.
Much love from Daddy.
* Arrival in London at Heath Row Airport.
