The Criterion
7 June 1937
Dearest Lady,
I hope that my cable of Saturday was intelligible. If you find that I can be of any use to you at Southampton, or are feeling shaky, you have only to send me a telegram from the boat. ButEnglandLondon;h1during 1937 Coronation;d1 in general there is nothing one can do for anyone; there will be a large crowd, and you will just be pushed off and through the gates and into the train like toothpaste; so unless I hear I will be at Waterloo (I assume it is Waterloo). TheCheetham, Revd Ericpleased to welcome EH;c8 vicar will be very glad to have you stay here; andFlat 3, 11 Emperor's GateEH stays in;a5 I suggest that I should drop you here (it will be some time between tea and dinner presumably) and take your heavy luggage on to the cloak room at Paddington, as you won’t want to have big boxes hauled all the way up to this roost. The vicar expressed a hope that I will at least put my pictures up on the walls before you see the flat. I want you to see it, so that you can advise me as to whether I should stay here or move to the first floor room above John Hayward, which will be vacant in the autumn. There are strong reasons both for and against, but you can’t advise until you have seen this.
I shall be anxious about your health until I can see for myself.
Itravels, trips and plansEH's 1937 summer in England;c7itinerary coordinated with EH;a8 hope you will stay for a night or two, because I may not be able to come to Campden until after the 4th July. IKingswood School, BathTSE's prize-day address to;a1 have to be in Bath on the 25th, and whether it would be possible to get from there to Campden on the Saturday I don’t know. Thentravels, trips and plansEH's 1937 summer in England;c7EH accompanies TSE to Edinburgh;a7 IEdinburgh Universityconfers honorary degree on TSE;a1 have to be in Edinburgh on the 2nd July for the weekend. I have asked for three tickets for the ceremony, but I don’t advise you to come; because (1) it would be a long and tiring journey (2) expensive (3) I should not see anything of you. The whole day of the 2nd will be taken up with University formalities – lunch – garden party – and evening reception; andBaillie, Very Revd Johnas Edinburgh host;a6 I must be at the disposal of my host John Baillie the next day; he wants to give a dinner party I think. I hope to get a midnight train on Saturday night, but may not get away until Sunday. I am hoping that Mrs. Perkins will invite me to Campden for the following week! becauseWorld Conference of Churches, 1937TSE's address to;a1 I have to be in Oxford for the week of the 12th, and it would fit in nicely. Then (as I have explained to her, with the rest of my time table) I have to be in Rochester again for a last visit there for the night of 23rd July, and after that I have no engagements, butFabers, the1937 summer holiday with;d8 Itravels, trips and plansTSE's 1937 Faber summer holiday;c8;a2 expect that Faber will want me for a week round about then, or before the 12th August when grouse shooting begins – he likes his non-shooting friends to come before that date.
IFamily Reunion, TheTSE on writing;b4 shall be able to get a few nibbles at my play now, but nibbles only. My'Religious Drama: Mediæval and Modern';a4 spare time during this last fortnight since I have been back from Salzburg has been taken up with the address on ‘Religious Drama: Mediaeval & Modern’ which I gave to the Friends of Rochester Cathedral on Friday; and I have ahead of me the preparation of a 20 minute speech to the Methodist schoolboys at Bath, and'Church as an Ecumenical Society, The';a1 a twenty minute address to the section of the Conference to which I am affected – ‘Church Community & State in Relation to the Economic Order’ for the 16th July – the conference goes on for another week after that, but I shall have had enough.
TonightOld Vic, Thepresents Murder;a9 IMurder in the Cathedral1937 Old Vic production;f3in rehearsal;a2 must try to look in at the rehearsal of Murder at the Old Vic. This is an experiment – the first time, apparently, that an outside play has been put on there – the Vic season of course is finished and the Vic troupe have been producing ‘Hamlet’ in Denmark. I am so very tired of Murder now! It is merely a reminder of what I am trying to do, which is very different.
I enclose a ten shilling note – to pay for the wire you had to send me and in case you send another before you leave. (I should be glad to have a very short one just before you leave to assure me that you ARE sailing). You had better keep the note and use it on the boat, instead of turning it into American money.
The weather for the last three days has been lovely – yesterday really hot – I am very glad for the Perkins’s sake. And I do hope that it will be the same when you arrive, and that we shall have a really warm summer.
IMorley, Frank Vigor;g8 was vexed that the one evening last week before a good boat, Morley wasted my evening. I had told him that I must get home in time to write letters – but I couldn’t get away from the restaurant until 10 – time was wasted before dinner with a boring American Ph.D. candidate, andMorley, Felixbores TSE;a1 atMeyer, Eugene;a1 dinner he had, as well as his brother Felix whom I had expected, Felix’s employer, the equally boring proprietor of the Washington Post, a Mr. Meyer.1 And Felix is not very interesting.2 I am worried for fear this may not reach you, so I am sending it to the Aquitania.
