Scope and content
Sicily is quiet as the 'merry-makers' have gone home. Even La Reine Hauser has left, 'leaving a string of unpaid bills'. Fulco and Judy left under 'dismal' circumstances too. Judy has just gotten out of jail. Fulco managed to get her released just in time to pack her bags. Was sorry to see Judy go, as she is a 'touching person'. Is amazed Beaton still has his secretary after she opened a cable from 'the mad Saint'. Wants to know who sends the cables, as 'surely he hasn't the gall to walk into a Western Union office and hand over such a message in person'. Fears he may be coming to visit towards the end of the month. Wishes Beaton a 'wonderful opening, and a great success'. Sends good wishes to the Lunts. Lola the raven is pecking at Capote's head, as 'she's a violent creature'. Kelly is downstairs barking and Jack is making coffee.
