From R. Vaughan Williams,
The White Gates,
Westcott Road,
Dorking.
[3rd November 1935]
Dearest Harriet
I should love to come on Thursday if I possibly can –
Yes I heard the Prelude1 over my grand new wireless – It was most exciting because I had entirely forgotten how it went – it was like listening to a new piece
– I am so grieved about your other news – but you will have all our prayers for a speedy recovery.
Yrs
