See Knox's entry in the Oxford DNB. The two items are in fair condition, lightly aged and creased, each with a couple of lightly-rusted pin holes. Clemens's plain card, with stamps and postmarks, is addressed to 'E. V. Knox Esq / c/o Punch / London, England.', and is signed 'faithfully / C C Clemens'. The message reads: 'Dear E.V. Knox / We hope the life of President Truman reached you safely? / The Society is arranging a symposium on democracy You may care to send your definition of democracy and a few comments. / Are you writing your Memoirs?' The unsigned typed carbon copy of Knox's reply is 1p, 12mo. After thanking Clemens for the book and the card he writes: 'I don't think my views on Democracy are very original. It seems to me simply a right to express an opinion. By Vote? Perhaps. In print? Possibly. By consent of the Police? NO. Good luck with the Society.' He ends with a witty twist: 'As for my memoirs, well I've been asked [last word underlined] to write them by several people. There are limits of course - even to Democracy.'.
