[begin page 3 of 3] 3. is a really wonderful picture.

I suppose Roland has told you we are hoping to have a Gainsborough and Turner exhibition, and I trust you will let us have your two pictures by Gainsborough for this, and your early Turner, which has never been exhibited.

I understand everything is going on very rapidly at White Allom's in connection with your house. I was glad to hear of its advancement.

Looking forward to seeing you,

Sincerely, C. S. Carstairs

My best to our mutual friends

Encs.
