Alderley Park, Chelford, Cheshire
Tuesday April 4th 1911
My dear Mr Montagu
What is all this about. It sounds (I mean the P.S. of your letter {1}) as tho’ you were indirectly taxing me with having said you were heygate and priggish, or is it an April Fool’s day joke, for I notice its written on the 1st. If it is the former of these two I have, for once, got such a clear conscience that I havent had a tremor of uneasiness. Probably its neither but another of your tortuous deductions from 2 stray words and as usual hopelessly wrong.
Did you hear of the excellent joke we played on Mr Meiklejohn, I havent yet heard how he took it.
I am practising chess with vigour, I hope to beat you again when I next meet you.
Yrs very sincerely
Venetia Stanley
