Thanks Beaton for his shorts. Beaton's shirt is finished and looks very handsome. Was sad to leave Beaton in Venice. Beaton must write to tell him the 'juicier' details of the party. His friends were here when he got back. Discusses his friends, including Noel Coward. Noel tried to charm Jack and 'went about it in the strangest manner: something I can't write-will have to tell'. Recounts conversation between Noel and Madame Luce. They have all gone now. Discusses Saint. Feels that he has become a burden. Hopes that Beaton is happy in the country.
