We have the Book Teas each month - tea at 4 & talk at 4.30. Among our recent speakers we have had Miss Dorothy Sayers, Miss Margaret Irwin & Mr Philip Guedalla. It would give us the greatest pleasure to welcome you. I do so hope that you will be able to come...”, 2 sides 8vo., London Lyceum Club headed paper, no date, together with a carbon copy of Wheatley’s reply thanking her for the invitation and saying he “should have been very happy to do so but recently I have taken on the personality page of the Sunday Graphic which necessitates my going out much more than I have been doing for some time past. I am, of course, continuing with my books, but this excursion into journalism limits the time that I can give to them; so for the time being I am unable to accept any invitations for literary talks... In writing to you it is a pleasure to be able to congratulate you upon your books which have given myself and my family, like countless thousands of others, many hours of enjoyment...”, 1 side A4, no place, 30th January
