ALS in German, signed “D.H.L.,” one page both sides, 5.25 x 8.5, no date. Untranslated concluding portion of a letter by Lawrence to his mother-in-law, regarding a variety of family subjects. In fine condition. Lawrence's wife, Freida, had been born into German nobility and was married to a language professor Ernest Weekley when they met. She became Lawrence's muse, lover, and eventually his wife, playing a crucial role in his artistic development. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover is thought to be based partly on her relationship as an aristocrat with the working-class Lawrence.
