Dear Mr. Buchan

Perhaps you may like to know how yr Rede Lecture strikes a brother historian. I agree with every word of it, & have often told

my hearers that, from one point of view, history is a chapter of accidents. I refuse to call these occurrences either fate or Providence.

No answer needed.

Yrs sincerely G.P. Gooch
