Dear Miss Scott

My husband has just received 2 packets from Ivor Gurney.¹ He has made a selection & asks if you would kindly go through them & deal with them as you think best.
My husband was much pleased at the fact of Ivor’s sending him the humourous² picture of his attending to it twice in his letters.

Yours very sincerely
Adeline Vaughan Williams

General Notes:

The VWs had stayed at Wheatfield in the summer of 1922 to house-sit for the Curles; date assumed from this period (but may not be, in view of VWL502 and VWL4597 which give the impression that the VWs had only just arrived at Wheatfieldin mid-July).
