Letter from Gertrude Longuet Higgins, letterhead of Victoria and Albert Hotel, Torquay, to son Henry Hugh Longuet Longuet-Higgins.

5 Mar 1922

From: 1922 To: 1922

Pleased all is going well with Cecil and Patricia Mary. Comments regarding the health of Hugh's father. Comments about the weather. Rain is badly needed in Devon - the water supply to the hotal is cut off at certain times of day. Drive out along the coast to Teignmouth. Beginning to get on a friendly footing with other guests. Three evenings a week in the hotel a trio of violin, cello and piano plays 'some of the music is quite enjoyable.' The hotel has a nice billiards room and the writer would like Hugh's father to larn to play. Vine Cottage sems uninhabitable at present due to the decorations being carried out.
