Stuk 44 - Letter from Jelly d'Aranyi to Elizabeth Trevelyan

1 item

18 Elm Park Gardens, S.W. - Apologises for not answering Mrs Trevelyan's 'sweet' letter and invitation, but they were very busy with Adila's wedding. Mrs Trevelyan is 'so, so nice': Jelly was 'so sad and wretched' before the wedding that Titi [her sister Hortense] arranged to stay with her for a week and join Ralph [Hawtrey] later; it was a 'great comfort' and now she is happy, 'very happy indeed for darling Adila'. Must stay in town for the moment, but if Mrs Trevelyan would still like them to come later, they will be very happy to do so. At the moment, they are very busy, including looking for a place to live; and she must be in town when Adila returns. Invites Mrs Trevelyan to visit if she is in town. Is 'practising quite madly' which is 'such a comfort'. Asks how Julian is; sends love to him; hopes he can 'still get into his Chinese costume'.
