Scope and content
In excitement over the "marvellous" sitting they allowed themselves to choose to enlarge all of the pictures. Now they have received a letter from Beaton's secretary saying that extra 8 x 10s will cost more. Feels dreadfully about the extravagance. Wishes she had known before as she would have chosen more carefully. Is sorry that this is a problem for Beaton. They are so fond and proud of the perfect pictures. He may not have heard that they will have a baby in January. Had a lovely time in Newport this summer, despite it being rainy and foggy. Hopes Beaton's Grecian holiday will be a joy.
