Fine Typed Letter signed to Dennis WHEATLEY
(1897-1977, Novelist) thanking him for “the copy of MURDER OFF MIAMI, which looks most entertaining. Many years ago I had a dim notion of writing a story something like this, but felt I could not cope with the difficulty of getting all the material together. I congratulate you on having produced this unique volume, which I shall study with great interest. It is very kind of you to invite me to your cocktail party... I do not know whether I shall be able to get up to Town... so may I leave it open...”, 1 side A4, 24 Newland Street, Witham, Essex headed paper, 16th July
