Item 4 - Autograph letter signed to Beaton

Thanks Beaton for a first copy of 'Near East' which just arrived. Congratulates him especially on the jacket. Tells him she is in bed with a cold. Says that Seymour has been writing a series of articles on the decline of Mussolini. Informs him that her brother is at the front in Casablanca and Tunisia and was wounded by shrapnel, but was in hospital only a few days. Asks Beaton to look for him if he goes out there. Gives Beaton the news on some of their friends and acquaintances.
