My dear Mr Kennedy,

Just a line - to say your letter has arrived - Thank you very much.

Jimmy has sent the cheque to the Bank - He fancies it ought to have had a stamp - but if so - he has told them to write to you at Lausers[5] about it.

We are glad you think the Westminster Bridge[6] improved!

With our kindest regards
Very sincerely yours

Beatrix Whistler
