Summary
Thanking him for his kind words about her poem, noting that she would like to write another "but every bore in London has descended on me;" mentioning that she is writing a note about Pavlik for the Times Obituary column and that it is depressing her horribly; asking him to write something about him as well, noting that it would be dreadful if Cecil Beaton was the only one to write about him.
