Letter from Ursula Vaughan Williams to Michael Kennedy
Letter No.: VWL3548
MRS. R. VAUGHAN WILLIAMS
10 HANOVER TERRACE
LONDON, N.W.1.
[10th September 1957]
Yes – the Graves would be a splendid choice – how nice – we shall both enjoy it.1
Ralph is much better – still on odd pills, but opera going! Trovatore last night – an odd affair. I hope that Eslyn will follow suit – only of course, she is able to lead a more glamourous life than R. who is always involved with ink when he is prone. Gil2 home from America, all safe – and Genia3 expecting Yania’s triumphal return with his business deals in the bag.
Love from both to both.
U.
