From R. Vaughan Williams,

Regents Park,
London, N.W.1.

April 22nd 1958.

Dear Mrs Freier
Owing to my absence from England your letter has been delayed in reaching me.
I am sorry to have to refuse your request as I have made it a rule never to allow my handwriting to be auctioned – however good the cause.
I am, however, sending your letter to the secretary of the R.V.W.Trust, and it will come before the Committee at their next meeting.
Yours sincerely
R Vaughan Williams

P.S. Plain “Mr”, please – not “sir”
