From R. Vaughan Williams,
The White Gates,
Westcott Road,
Dorking
October 14th 1952.
What a beautiful present. It stands on my mantlepiece at this moment.
It was nice to get that glimpse of you both, I wish it had been more, that is the worst of these large parties, one has no time to see anybody properly.1
All love
Uncle Ralph
1. There had been an 80th birthday celebratory concert for VW on 12 October at the Royal Festival Hall followed by a party – see R.V.W.: a biography p.326.
