Eliot. In part: "...Your Grace's kind letter...has been forwarded by my
secretary, as I have been at this Institute since the beginning of
October....I feel greatly honored by your Grace's attention and am most
happy to have received this letter....Your Grace's humble ("obedient"
written in) servant, T.S. Eliot." Very Good.
