2 Portland Villas, Hampstead - London

My dear Violet
I would have written before but lve not been well. The weather has been so terrible. On the day we should have come to Hampden Park I felt I couldn't face an hotel especially as Jones was not to have come too. So we are both staying here instead. Murry spends his time playing ten¬nis, playing ‘games' and I spend mine - in my room. Im simply longing to go away and WRITE. The only reason I mind leaving London is that I shall miss you and Sydney. But - there it is. And you understand.
Heavens! How dear you both are to me - Don't forget our last after¬noon together.
With my love
Yours ever
Katherine. [To Violet Schiff in Collected Letters]
