House of Commons
May 16th 1912
My dearest Venetia
I know you will accept my assurance about this afternoon when I say that I was engaged on work so deeply and urgently that I could neither telephone nor come.
After all its my loss and so perhaps you will realise that not coming was in itself sufficient punishment.
I shall see you tomorrow. Please dont be angry with me. I am so sorry for myself
Yrs ever
Edwin S. Montagu
