Autograph letter signed to Beaton, from Sydney. Discusses Constance. Constance thought Beaton was very special. Seems unbelievable that all that warmth and humour could disappear. Saw Phyllis on her way through New York. Phyllis is going to England at the end of June to bury Constance's ashes. Still has Beaton's watercolour of her over her bedroom mantlepiece. Her mother has a photograph that Beaton took. Thanks Beaton for his letter. 2p; paper. |
