Thanks Beaton for the "heavenly" gifts. Has become a "sad recluse" and does not want to see any friends or neighbours. What a "vile hell of boredom" the country is.

Is sitting with Rose in the Hotel before lunch. Beaton's American jacket is going to be a disaster. Reviews of D. are moderate. Lincoln is very nice and asked after Beaton.
