The White Gates,

January 10 [1930]
Dear Boughton
I want to tell you that I admired your 3 Hardy Songs very much and especially the middle one. I rather believe that that kind of music growing out of those kinds of words is what will go down to future generations as the best type of our generation and country. Probably a frenchman or German would hate them & I rather hope he would.
Yrs very sincerely
R Vaughan Williams
