MacDonald (Ramsey) Typed letter signed ("Ramsey MacDonald")

The letter, addressed to Sir Felix Pole, reads "Yes, do write me about that lunch. The sulphurous atmosphere of Paddington, I am informed, is so heavy that only men of habits and inevitable destiny like J.H. T. can stand it. However, I am half inclined to take a shot at it. As to my gossip at Port Sudan, I am in the most enviable position of being able to say quite honestly that although I know the position that the man occupies, I cannot for the life of me tell you his name because I cannot remember it. I am the right sort of person in whom to confide secrets", one page, folding marks, some age-related discolouration, 4to, House of Commons, 12 February 1926; with a copy of Wanderings and Excursions, signed and inscribed on front free endpaper "From Ramsey MacDonald, with best wishes", 4to, Jonathan Cape, 1929.
