Transcript

Alderley Park, Chelford, Cheshire
April 21st 1915

My darling I’ve been in a terrible frame of mind all to-day & have written you an odious letter which I shant send as if you got it you’d probably refuse to come here & I want you very much. I’m so glad that I do, because most of the day I’ve felt I didnt much care if you did or didnt.

I am so glad for you that you should have found everything going on so well at home.

Were you rather disgusted by my letter yesterday, I was rather ashamed of it, & more so when this morning I got a wonderful letter from the P.M {1} which shows me how wrong I was to think that he only thought of his own happiness & never of mine. I think I’ll show it you if you like.

We wont think of those things for a little but just be very happy. If you dont come, however good your reasons, I shall wash you forever.

If you were here I should probably be odious to you, but by Friday I shall be all right.

Goodbye darling think of me

Your
Venetia

I shall only write to you once again before I see you.
