Dear Professor,
I am glad to tell you that my health is definitely beginning to improve, and I hope that you are in an even better position in this respect.
I was glad to get a personal letter from Rank this week and, if he shews you my reply, I trust that you will both agree with Rickman's and my answer to the question he raised.1
Chance has brought me an unusual opportunity from which I hope to learn much. An actively homosexual girl came to be analysed in December, both for her inversion and for neurotic symptoms. Now her feminine partner, who lives with her, has also come. They are both well-educated and highly intelligent persons (in the early twenties), so you may imagine that the analytic work is specially interesting in such a conjuncture.
Practice has once more improved; one has only to wait in the bad times. I wonder how much you have found it possible to make out of Money-Kyrle? What did you find to be the chief cause of his resistance against giving up his symptoms?
Our Society is, I am glad to say, distinctly improving in quality and we now have large meetings with good discussions. Bryan is not moving forwards well and I should judge James Glover to be our best member.
