Scope and content
Has been enjoying Beaton's last volume of diaries. Praises the book, which "brims with good things of every sort". Stephen and Natasha have been staying with him helping to sort Pauline's papers. Most of them are of no interest but some of them are worth keeping, such as the diary she kept on her first visit to Russia, Tells Beaton about the guests that have arrived. The pressing of the grapes is in full swing. Philippe asked him to pass on his delight at Beaton sending him the book and at the photograph of Pauline.
