One page typewritten letter, on Cricket Club of India’ headed paper, dated 18th May 1946 to ‘Rotarian McKay’ of the National Bank of India. Duleep is responding to a request to speak on cricket to the Rotary club ‘I am a little terrified at your kind invitation to speak on Cricket to my brother Rotarians on June 11th. I am afraid I am not a good speaker but thinking things over I have finally decided to agree to speak as it may be in the interest of the game which some of us love so much. I will be going away for a short holiday in three to four days.... I hope the climate of Mahableshwar will inspire me to think out which will be of interest to the listeners’. ‘Kindest regards Tape marks to page edges and corners, folds and very slight loss to the top right hand corner otherwise in good condition
