Scope and content
Expressing his regrets that FH has decided to resign from Cambridge University. Has always 'derived great pleasure' from FH's lectures and 'inspiration from your papers', especially those on gravitational collapse as a mechanism of star formation. Hopes that a happier outcome than can currently be foreseen will prevail, especially as a 'rather better better future', mainly due to FH's efforts, is just appearing.
