Dear Mrs de Laszlo,
I am very pleased that you & Mr de Laszlo can dine here on Tuesday next, Oct 28. dinner is at 8.15.
I had to telephone as the time is so short. Violet Lady Beaumont, Lord & Lady Verulam[1] & a few others are coming.
My house is small, so that I cannot have many.
Yours truly
[Moral?]
