Transcript

18 Mansfield Street, Portland Place, W.
Thursday

I’ve written to Sylvia telling her that we shall arrive at about 5 o’clock, and I expect you to lunch 1.30, or thereabouts on Saturday. Could you lunch tomorrow as well. I’ve got Eliza and no one else, and I dont feel capable of entertaining her single handed. Do come.
