Summary
Concerning George Bernard Shaw; saying "I have thought of you a lot since G.B.S. went and wanted to tell you about his last days. I will when I come back but I am sailing quite suddenly for America and expect to be away about two months;" saying she would like to talk with him about a piece he wrote about G.B.S. "...because naturally I don't agree with a lot of it, but I'd like to know how you are, where you are, and what you are doing. I have made a new friend, Mr. Christopher Fry. I hope you like his plays and I hope he likes yours."
