Dearest Hariett,
You cannot imagine how happy I was to see you again and to tell you how I love you. If the lady with the monocle and the badly tinted hair (I have never seen such an awful pink hair and such a distempered face) – if this lady will meet Ellis, she will tell him the truth, namely, that besides of his wife there was sitting a man who was rather shockingly flirting with her. I feel sad, that I could not spare half a day to come to see you in Brighton. – Yesterday I saw the Archbishop of York, who seems to know Ellis and inquired about him. The Archbishop was most kind and helped me extremely. It is also possible that I shall see today the Archbishop of Canterbury. You see, dear Harriet, I am only dealing with Graces. So perhaps some grace will be spread over me. Thank you that you will write Christiane. I heard again from somebody that she is in a rather unhappy state and she needs kindness and friendship now.
Love to you both.
Yours ever
Ernst Toller
