Item
16 May 1933 (Undated. Date inferred from contents.)

With two cuttings of photos of Beaton, Lady Castlerosse and others, one from 'The Tatler'. Thanks Beaton for his letter. Poor darling Cimmie [ie Lady Cynthia Mosley] died this afternoon. They have lost a 'divine friend'. Is glad Beaton is having a lovely trip in Rome. Thinks they all look very drunken in the enclosed pictures. The one of Beaton and Diana is 'divine'.

Was ready to come to Beaton's party on Boxing Day when people turned up for drinks. They wouldn't leave and so they could not get to Broadchalk in reasonable time. This was 'annoying and dissapointing'. Henry sends best wishes for a happy New Year.
