Part of Papers of Robert Calverley Trevelyan and Elizabeth Trevelyan
14, Rue Nungesser et Coli, Paris 16. - Pitoeff has given her a part in a pacifist play [Angermeyer's "Plus Jamais Ca !"]; it is very small, but she is glad to have work and should earn about a thousand francs; she is however very sorry to miss her visit to the Trevelyans and hopes this can be postponed. Pitoeff wants to put on the play in Geneva; she thinks the League of Nations is helping, as the play is intended to 'bring together in peace France and Germany'. Her part, that of a German woman, can be 'played tragically' and she hopes to 'do something good'. Even the thought of travelling has helped her. Sends regards to Mr Trevelyan, her 'men' [husband and son] send 'regretfull saluts'.
