Dear Mr. Stubbs

Thank you very much for sending me the programme of the Tudor’s.  If I am in England I hope very much to be able to come.1
I wish I could have heard the “New Ghost”,2 but unfortunately I had to go out that morning.
With kind regards to both of you,
Yours sincerely

R. Vaughan Williams
