Scope and content
Writes to thank Beaton for his obituary of 'Oggie' (singer and teacher Olga Lynn) which appeared in The Times. Feels that his obituary captured her character perfectly. Asks him to come and see her soon, but has a fatalistic feeling that he is away or too busy. Says that she did not enjoy the last lunch party they were both at together.
