Letter from J J [Joseph John] Thomson, Trinity Lodge, Cambridge, to [Joseph] Larmor Thomson was sorry to read that Larmor's health was poor. He had asked after Larmor at the Portrer's Lodge at St. John's. He has heard recently of several people going through liver treatment and there are several devices for making raw liver palatable. He gives an account of [Reginald St. John] Parry, about whom they were anxious. He relays news of Northern Ireland, from a former pupil Beatty. Thomson had not realised the danger, writing that 'Stanley Baldwin told me that arguing with [Eamon] De Valera was exactly like arguing with a gramophone...'. 17 January 1933
