Letter from Ralph Vaughan Williams to Ralph Wedgwood

Letter No.: VWL1943


The White Gates,
Dorking.

Aug 3 [1945]

Dear Randolph

1)  I am sorry you cannot come & tell F.U. what you think of them, but I quite understand.1
2)  I am so sorry I made a muddle about the portrait of Tom Wedgwood & the Nat Trust.  I thought all the Museum things went together – & this was hanging on the wall – But I have put it all right with the Nat Trust now.2
3)  Give my love to Iris3 & tell her that the things have safely arrived & she shall have her [xxxx?] back as soon as we can get them unpacked
Yours

Ralph
