An Unexpected InvitationDecember 1911
London, England
The weather has been remarkably mild though rainy this winter. Leaden skies and thick choking fogs in the city have exerted their own level of depression on the soul, however, and as the holiday season approaches everyone who can is looking for ways to escape the ancient capital and spend the festivities in the countryside where the air is clean and the company gregarious. For the struggling musician who is losing hope of being able to make it as a real artist, the unexpected invitation to spend the season at Leatherby Hall in Wiltshire with an old school friend is an irresistible temptation.
Dear Bunny,
How long it has been since our school girl days at Winchester Academy. Ive followed your career in the orchestra, and I was hoping against hope that you could find time to spend a few days with me down here at Leatherby Hall at Christmas time. Brian has plans to spend time with his stuffy old friends, talking about ancient history over and over again, and it positively makes me want to scream its so boring.
I have few friends in the area, and I would be so grateful if you could come. I dont want you to do it out of pity, we really do put on a grand show with village fetes and stuff. Theres even hunting, so bring your riding gear with you, if you wish or you can borrow some of mine. Brian has a shoot planned as well at the end of the year, if you can stay that long, and he gave me a lovely Italian gun for my birthday last year that youre welcome to use.
Do say youll come. It will be such fun. Well have adventures together, as we did at school.
Youre old friend
Jane Hardaway Leatherby
