Transcript

Alderley Park, Chelford, Cheshire
Sunday

My dear Mr Montagu

It will be very nice if you will come to the Grand National with us {1}. We are not going to the smartest places but to the Grand Stand. I shall go from London on Friday. I dont know in the least how we get home.

I am sorry you wont be in the same house as Winston for Easter, but I daresay he wont come either.

Yrs very sincerely
Venetia Stanley
