THE ATHENÆUM, PALL MALL, S.W.1.

Oct: 30: 28

My own little darling

This is a lovely morning, & it should be pleasant on Newmarket 'eath. I have just got your dear letter

The "Spectator" dinner last night was rather fun.

The P.M. was quite good, Evelyn Wrench very bad, & A.P.H. superlatively good. I sat between Lord Dawson of Penn & E.V. Lucas. Almost everybody in the world was there - Barrie, Galsworthy, Wells, the

Bennet[t]s, etc. The Lord Chief Justice says I will be in the next Cabinet, & Barrie raves about Montrose.

I must hurry to catch the train to Otterburn [with Max Beaverbrook]
