MARLOW, BUCKS.

June 2nd 1936.

My dear Philip

All our heartiest and sincerest congratulations to you and Lucy^[1] on the arrival of yet another grandson.^[2] Nature evidently intends the name of de Laszlo to be well established and is providing a succession of males to carry it on.

Our love to you both

Always yours

A.L.B.

Editorial Note:

Alfred Lys Baldry (1858–1939), British artist and art critic who authored several articles on de László and who was a close family friend; for biographical notes, see [3562].
