Letter from Hugh Cairns, St John's Wood Park, London to Howard Walter Florey Told Lord Nuffield that they could use a further £1 500 000 and that ultimately the School could absorb £5-6 million - in future, do not need to apologise for asking for more money - believes Nuffield will keep them going and will look to future - sorry about Castle - thinks Ellis would be best choice as Nuffield Professor of Medicine - Schnapper would be a risk from the personal point of view - discusses Ellis - hopes Florey will be able to talk to John Mellanby about this - is keen that Mellanby should consider Ellis carefully - hopes to get to Oxford on Tuesday. 21 July 1937
