Nicholls. Several letters addressed to Professor Nicholls loosely inserted.

Canada from 18 Clover Close, Cumnor Hill, Oxford OX2 9JH dated 10 April 1989 and consisting of about 350 words in which she says she found Nicholl's article both interesting and provocative, she goes on to criticise a particular passage and would also have liked her husband, Denys, (a theologian and tutor at Jesus College, Oxford) to argue out the tie up between various sorts of immortality. Finally she gives details of a tape she has listened to and assures Nicholls nothing has been left out.
