Correspondence from Betty May to David Garnett*
47 Finborough Road. Fulham Rd. S. W. 10.
6 . 4. 30 [6 April 1930]
Dear David
The reason I phoned you so many times on Thursday last. I did not want you to come because Edgell[Edgell Rickword] had chicken pox & I thought it would be catching, but afterwards I found out adults could not be contaminated. We have not yet received any money & I do want you to lend me £3.0.0 & I will not bother you about money again for a long time. Do lend it to me David it is important.
& sometime write me a letter & let me come & see you.
Love,
Betty May
