“TO LAURENCE KRIEG (P):
The Kilns
Headington Quarry
Oxford
April 21st 57
Dear Laurence,
Well, I can’t say I have had a happy Easter, for I have lately got married and my wife is very, very ill.
I am sure Aslan knows best and whether He leaves her with me or takes her to His own country, He will do what is right.
But of course it makes me very sad. I am sure you and your mother will pray for us.
All good wishes to you both.
Yours,
C.S. Lewis”
