Dear Mr. de Lászlo,
My mother tells me that you have very kindly consented to make a sketch of me [7851] for my father.[1] I expect to be in London till the middle of February, so would you perhaps let me know when you would have time to start. Unfortunately I have only Saturday

afternoons free from one o’clock onwards.[2] If how ever it is too inconvenient for you I will do my best to have a few free hours in the morning.
Yours sincerely
Theodora of Greece
