Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to Ralph Wedgwood
Letter No.: VWL237
[Spring 1891?]
… I shall have to write a preface saying that I owe my best thanks to all sorts of swells (though I differ from them on many points) for much valuable help. Also a rather silly song may possibly be accepted by Messrs Forsyth Brothers – but this is doubtful.
My ballet is due next Saturday1 – we are going to paste and bind it tonight.
Yrs affectionately
Ralph Vaughan Williams
