Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to Herbert Byard

Letter No.: VWL2708


From R. Vaughan Williams,
The White Gates,
Westcott Road,
Dorking.

August 2nd 1953.

Dear Byard,

I am sorry I have not answered your letter before, but I have been away and very busy.  My feeling is that it is no good adding anything to what has been said as regards Barter.1  But I will still do something if you like.

P.S.  I had a very happy account of your good works at David Gibbs’s wedding2.  His sister is a great friend of mine, and she told me about it.
