Notes
Part of a collection that consists of 84 autograph letters, 3 typed letters, 7 postcards, and 3 telegrams. Most, but not all, are written by Vanessa Bell to John Maynard Keynes. Items in this collection are described in 97 individual records (MA 3448.1-97).
The letter is dated "Tuesday." The date is based on Roger Fry's death in Sept. 1934 because Bell's visit to see Helen [Anrep], Roger Fry's companion, seems to take place soon after Fry's death: "she was very calm & seemed to find it best to do all the small things that have to be done ... I think Helen will want me more later."
Summary
Asking if he will let his driver take her to Rodwell to pick up her car; mentioning that she visited Helen [Anrep] and that "Gerald Brenan is there helping her & of course all the Frys."
