MILLAIS
(John Guille, 1865-1931, British Artist, Gardener, Travel Writer and Biographer)
Autograph Letter signed to Paul Frost
saying he is glad "to hear your programme is working out so well & trust you have done Scotland & Cornwall as well. I fear I shall not see you again this time as I am going to fly to Marseille next week ... but try & come again in late May ... & we can show you something better. All you say of the aesthetic influence of gardens & old families is only too true but it is sad these socialist Governments are only out to destroy the best that is in life in our beloved Country... I wrote to C. Williams this week & [am] glad you saw and appreciated dear old Sir Herbert Maxwell. Best of luck ...", 1 side 4to., with original autograph envelope, Compton's Brow, Horsham, 25th March
