Don’t dream of replying, but if Megan were to call on me when I am in London - and she has been kind enough to come and see me- and if she could tell me that this note has given you half the pleasure to read that it has given me to write, I shall be happy. I have forgotten the
Welsh Ted taught me when I went to ..fifteen years ago, as I would have added a word to mark the occasion”; and a letter signed by William Max Aitken (Lord Beaverbrook), reading “You have been given the best birthday celebration in history. My attachment to you is constant. My devotion is fixed and immovable in my life. I would grieve deeply if you doubted my loyalty. The newspapers have
never wavered in your support. My restraint of late is due to my support of Winston. He rides high, wide and handsome”,
