Regarding their ages he writes: 'Your fine record of eighty one wonderful years makes my own sixty two quite youngish and I hope & pray you will be long spared to continue to grace this good earth'. He plans to revisit England with his wife within three years and wishes to meet Adams and his son Gilbert in order to 'shape up to the future'. He gives news of his eldest son and expresses interest in a planned book on Adams's life 'for you have inspired hundreds to do good work'. Till has posted six prints - 'all landscapes' - for entry in the London Salon and asks Adams for his opinion. 'Some taken on our holiday travels - my wife paints and sketches we travel thousands of miles to get good shots. I've about 3000 good landscape shots & will go on making more - that urge to produce pictures goes on and on'. He discusses his own plans 'to publish a book of my landscapes - it is almost ready but I have not yet approached anyone about publishing it - in fact I really dont know just how to go about it - but one day I will get round to doing something'. He gives details of his employment explaining that it was in one of his firm's steelworks that he broke his arm: 'just tripped over a machine left by one of my Engineers put where it should not have been - and at an advanced middle age bones dont knit too quickly'. He writes that he is appending 'a shot of myself not present taken by Gordon <Waugh> FRPS - it was taken during the judging of the S H Salon some months ago'. It was the Johannesburg Photographic Society which described Till as the greatest South African pictorialist. For more information about him see his entry in the South African Who's Who.
