Scope and content
Manuscript letter from Cole Lesley, personal secretary of Noël Coward (1899-1973), in which Lesley writes that he has just arrived home from an extraordinary party, with just the right sort of friends at this particular time. Beaton will be a great support to both Lesley and Coward's partner, Graham Payn (1918-2005), tomorrow and Lesley expresses heartfelt thanks to him for that. To be surrounded by friends at such a low point means much to him and he feels happier and better thanks to Beaton. [This letter is dated several months after the death of Noël Coward in March 1973).
