My dear Philip:

Forgive I never wrote to thank you & your dear Lucy for putting me up on The Night: Now I enclose last saturdays Times at least a part of it: for there is an article on John Glover one of founders of the R.S.B.A.[1]

Most interesting I wonder

[Page 2]

if the society has any of his work or what price it fetches now: By the way did you see The Times criticism on the “Show”:[2] Almost kindly if a bit a grudging but you do get the praise for having got a move on: So cheer up:

I love seeing Paul[3] & his pal at Westminster.

your ever

Dick
