Assistance sought please. 
 
In his HES editorial Bruce Caldwell ascribes to Keynes the description of 
Sraffa as the most leisured man he had ever met. Bruce is unable to recall 
where he found the quote and I wonder if anybody else has a source for it, 
or as Bruce suggests, knows from where else in Keynes's circle it might 
have come. I have 
checked the index to the Keynes collected writings, but found nothing. 
 
For the record:  I am writing a little section on Sraffa as part of a book 
on the British economics profession from Marshall to Meade. 
 
Many thanks 
 
Roger Middleton
