Typescipt letter signed to Beaton, from Suffolk. Encloses draft idea. Idea is that Randolph Churchill and his three sisters are marking the Golden Wedding anniversary of their parents by giving them an avenue of golden roses at Chartwell. As they will not flower until next year, they are going to present their parents on the day with a large, illuminated vellum book which will have a picture of each of the 28 planted roses. They will be painted in watercolour by leading English flower painters. Encloses a list of the types of roses. Letter asks if Beaton would be interested in joining this enterprise. Requests that Beaton send a telegram giving response. Asks if Beaton knows anyone else who might like to join the project. It is going to be a surprise for his mother and father.
