My Dear,

I hope that you have now been benefitting from the sea breezes and the quiet of Grand Manan, and that the weather has been good – I trust that the heat wave of America, of which I read the other day, will have abated before your return. Thetravels, trips and plansTSE's 1948 trip to America;g5itinerary;a8 time for my departure approaches: next week I shall pay the balance of my ticket and see about my American visa, and begin dealing with various details before my departure. IPrinceton Universityand TSE's Institute for Advanced Study position;e3 am still uncertain about my abode in Princeton; if I hear nothing early this week I shall think of cabling. NoMcKnight Kauffers, the;b5 doubt they will find something for me, and I can stop for a few days on arrival with the Kauffers as before, at 40 Central Park South.

I shall not leave London again (unlessMorleys, the;l1Morley, Christina (née Innes)Morleys, theMorley, Christina Margaret Peregrine ('Perry')Morleys, theMorley, DonaldMorleys, theMorley, Frank VigorMorleys, theMorley, OliverMorleys, theMorley, SusannaMorleys, thePike's FarmMorleys, the I go for one night to the Morleys, of whom I have seen almost nothing during the whole past year). MyBrocklebanks, theTSE visits at Alveston;a3 visit to the Brocklebanks was pleasant. WeWavell, General Archibalddeserts TSE for golf;b3 did not see a great deal of the Field Marshal, as he was out all day playing golf on Thursday, and had to leave on Friday, but he came to two out of the three performances. HamletHelpmann, Robertas Hamlet;a1 withShakespeare, WilliamHamlet;b6 Robert Helpman I did not very much like; first because it was played in early Victorian costumes, with crinolines, which seemed to me a pointless and irritating innovation; andanti-Semitism;c9 second because I do not find a Jewish ballet-dancer the ideal Hamlet (forChaplin, Charlieresembles Robert Helpman;a2 he kept reminding me of Charlie Chaplin) and he did not seem to me well inside the part. One admires him for wanting to play Hamlet, however, and he has much improved over his first production some years ago. OthelloShakespeare, WilliamOthello;c5 was very satisfactory, playedTearle, Godfreyin Othello;a1 inWynward, Diana (née Dorothy Isobel Cox)in Othello, at post-performance party;a1 anQuayle, Anthonyas Iago, as producer of Troilus, as host;a1 older convention with no use of the apron stage, by Godfrey Tearle1 and Diana Wynyard,2 and the young man who is to produce next year, Anthony Quayle, as an interesting Iago.3 I thought Diana Wynyard excellent in this part. AfterQuayles, theentertain TSE in Stratford;a1Quayle, AnthonyQuayles, theQuayle, Dorothy (née Hyson)Quayles, the theQuayle, Dorothy (née Hyson)hosts TSE to party;a1 theatre the Quayles, who are in the house of Shakespeare’s son-in-law, entertained us most lavishly to supper – itWavell, General Archibaldgossips with actresses;b4 was amusing to see the taciturn Field Marshal sitting on a sofa between Miss Wynyard and Mrs. Quayle (a former actress named Dorothy Hyson)4 chatting away like anything.5 OnShakespeare, WilliamTroilus and Cressida;d2 Saturday night we saw Troilus, produced by Quayle, whichKnight, Esmondoverdoes the part of Thersites;a1 I also was well pleased with, though the part of Thersites was overdone.6 ThatBrocklebank, Lt.-Col. Richard Hugh Roydsand TSE attend Troilus;a2 is to say, Col. Brocklebank and I went; Mrs. B., who is still rather run down after nursing her mother, had a slight sore throat and stayed at home. BesidesSamuel, Walter, 2nd Viscount Bearsted;a1 this, there was an excursion to see the very fine collection of pictures at the house of Lord Bearsted (who was away)7 andSeymour, Hugh, 8th Marquess of Hertford;a1 aSeymour, Lady Helen Francesin decaying ancestral home;a1 tea party at Ragley, the great mansion of the Marquesses of Hertford.8 That was rather melancholy – the great house very decayed, with brocade in rags on some of the walls – it has never been fully occupied since it was a hospital during the war; and Lady Helen Seymour (the present Marquess’s mother)9 living alone most of the time with two servants, in about four rooms; and round about great vast salons with the furniture in corners or covered up. The young Marquess, who is just to go for his military service, beginning in the ranks, had made some attempt to mow the lawn, but they can’t get enough petrol to use a motor mower. MostReynolds, Joshuain Ragley Hall's collection;a2 of the portraits are not remarkable: one good Reynolds.

TheBrocklebanks, thetheir situation;a4 Brocklebanks’ are very amiable people, with an aspect of sadness. Their own house is now too big for them; they no longer keep any horses as they cannot feed them, and they are trying to sell the house.10 Then they will share a house in Hyde Park Square belonging to their son-in-law. Like many people who live in the country, they find housekeeping difficult, and with so little petrol to get about they find it lonely, though Alveston, so near to Stratford, is less isolated than many places. (It is rather expensive to visit them, as it means taking a taxi from Leamington twelve miles away). He is in some ways a very simple fellow. WhatBrocklebank, John Ralph Aucklandhis childhood bedroom;a2 added to the melancholy was my occupying the son’s bedroom, still with many of his things about: the evidence of developing youthful taste in the pictures, rangingKlee, Paulpainting by hanging in John Brocklebank's bedroom;a1 fromBraque, Georgespainting by hanging in John Brocklebank's bedroom;a1 college prints to a Klee and a small Braque; and when I opened the closet and found two straw hats, evidently relics of the barges on the 4th of June at Eton, it was as if a ghost had appeared. Mrs. B. is rather high-brow, and informed about current literature.

I have suffered from a feeling of inertia, provoked no doubt by the prospect of pulling myself up so soon, which prevents settling down to anything; and in consequence the letter of thanks to them cost me much labour. IBrownes, the Martindiscuss Cocktail Party draft;c9 dineCocktail Party, Theto be discussed with Brownes;c3 with the Brownes on Tuesday to discuss the draft of my play, on which I have not done, and shall not now be able to do before my departure, any more work. TheBritish Broadcasting Corporation (BBC)Gielgud Family Reunion repeated;e1 B.B.C. areFamily Reunion, TheBBC Gielgud broadcast version;i6to be repeated;a2 toGielgud, Johnas Harry again;a8 produce ‘The Family Reunion’, with Gielgud in the chief part, I think while I am at sea. IThorps, the;e5 infer from what you say that the Thorps like having crowds of people about. I find that more and more I crave quiet and staying in one place.

I may be writing once more to Grand Manan – I suppose air mail reaches you there just as quickly as in Massachusetts.

With all my love
Tom.
