CLARIDGE’S HOTEL,

BROOK STREET. W. 1.

Aug. 15th 1924

Dear Mr. de Laszlo,

Thanking you ever so much for your kind letter, I wish to tell you that last night I received an answer from my wife^[1] saying she would prefer meeting you in Paris the 17th of September.^[2] She was very pleased to hear of your aimiable [sic] arrangement and was very much looking forward to meet [sic] you. She can unfortunately only be in London on the 23rd of this month.

[Page 2]

I had rung you up last night and this morning, but both times you were out, so I hasten to send you these few lines. I returned last night from a stay at Sandringham.

I do hope you will not mind me having taken such a time over answering. – I must still tell you how very pleased I was meeting you the other day, nearly like older times!

Thanking you again ever so much for your kindness, I hope it will be au revoir untill soon again.

In haste Your’s [sic] very truly

George. R
