The Kilns, Headington Quarry, Oxford Dec 29/58 Dear Mary Just a very hurried line—(1). To condole with you on the loss of Fr.—.18 (2.) To tell a story which puts the contrast between our feast of the Nativity and, all this ghastly “Xmas” racket at its lowest. My brother heard a woman on a ’bus say, as the ’bus passed a church with a Crib outside it, “Oh Lor’! They bring religion into everything. Look—they’re dragging it even into Christmas now!” Love and sympathy from us both. Yours Jack As from
