Letter from Robert G. Kelly, 1945

 

09/21/1945

Kelly, Robert G.

 

Kelly writes about his plans to study politics and economics at Oxford University. He describes his last wandering trip through Germany, including the Münster Cathedral in Ulm, Germany and his feelings about "standing alone on the broken, puddled pavement." There were "stumps of houses" and flattened buildings everywhere. He savors the anticipation of a quiet and studious time in England and returning to school in the United States.
