Scope and content
Beaton's bombshell letters arrived last night. They have not yet recovered from all the news: "we laughed and cried and hugged each other". Is trying to collect herself to write to Beaton. Cannot conceive what this big financial contract can be. Will pray that it may materialise and will welcome it if it will keep Beaton in England for nine months of the year. His friends will be overjoyed. Discusses the romance which has swept Beaton off his feet. Advises him not to think of marriage but to enjoy the moment. Has always had an enormous admiration for "the greatest artist so far ever having appeared upon the films". Discusses the Paris trip which Beaton's mother is looking forward to. Last page missing.
