ALS in pencil signed “George,” one page both sides, 4.25 x 7, Marlborough House letterhead, May 21, 1909. Letter to David, in part: "I was sure you would be grieved to hear of the death of my dear old friend…He had not been well lately but we thought it was nothing serious, he went to a nursing home on Monday & died in his sleep early this morning, it was heart of course. He will be a great loss to me in many ways besides having been an old friend of 32 years standing. We were all very fond of him & he was the nicest Frenchman I ever knew." George adds at the top of the first page: "Excuse pencil I am sitting in the garden." In fine condition, with some light creasing.
