PHILBY KIM: (1912-1988) British Intelligence Officer, a Double Agent and member of the spy ring known as the Cambridge Five. Philby defected to the Soviet Union in 1963. T.L.S., Kim Philby, two pages, 8vo, Moscow, 4th October n.y. (1961?), to Brian Rooney ('My dear Rooney') of G. Bell & Sons. Philby states that he remembers his correspondent from previous letters, 'especially for occasional news items about John at a time when he never wrote at all. There has been a slight (very slight) improvement since then; perhaps an average of 1 ½ letters per year.' He writes regarding the death of his sister, 'I am grateful for your kind words about Pat. I was very fond of her, and there was some discussion of her coming out here for a visit. Actually, the first report I heard was that she had been murdered, so the news that her death was natural was almost a relief. My eldest daughter, who was here in the summer, told me that she was looking very weak and thin, so I was half prepared for the news.' and further states 'As for your request about the Myth of QS, I doubt whether I have any legal standing in the matter. But, in case I have, I readily give my consent to your doing anything you like with it - - except of course destroying it. If the Saudi deal falls through, and you want to get rid of the MS, perhaps you would send it to me' before continuing 'By all means let John have anything that may be forthcoming from the Saudi, or any other, deal. As you say, I do not suppose that there will be much in it, but perhaps he could buy you a meal at some bomb-free eating place. Incidentally, you can take this consent as a blanket one to cover any other dealings you may have with my father's Nachlass. Somewhere there should be a vast tome (some half-million words) on Transjordan, written originally, I think, for Hale. Somewhat naturally, the latter wouldn't touch a book that size, and, as my father refused to cut out a single word, the matter rested in abeyance. Where the typescript is now, I have no idea.' Accompanied by the original envelope. Rare. VG Hillary 'Harry' St-John Bridger Philby (1885-1960), British Colonial office Intelligence officer, Explorer and Arabist, also known as Jack Philby or by his Arabic name Sheikh Abdullah. Father of Kim Philby.
