Johnny dearest,
Only a short note I’m afraid, Frances is waiting impatiently to go to town, – & I’ve no letter of yours to answer! I may not be able to write tomorrow as I’m going to a Nat. Gallery concert with Monica Bernard who is coming back here to tea afterwards.
I hope all goes well with you, I am looking forward to seeing the agricultural papers.
Sorry this photo is printed thro’ the back of the negative. I have a larger print here for you if you’d like to have it – let me know.
All my love dearest one [underlined] Ursula [/underlined]

[underlined] When [/underlined] are you going to get leave?
