Letter
Ida Carroll, Geoffrey Griffiths
1942

Geoffery Griffiths complains that "a hundred hours (nearly) are quite ninety-nine too many" before he gets to see Ida Carroll again. He wishes her good luck managing a concert - likely one of the Northern School of Music students. She has promised to visit him in Ashton-under-Lyne and promises that "the Mayor of Ashton-under-Lyne occupies the shop next door, he and I will give you the Freedom of the City of whatever it is called."
