Autograph Letter Signed "Dorothy Brooke", her maiden name, to Robert Lynd, essayist

ALS, signed in her maiden name of Dorothy Brooke, on letterhead of 3 Arkwright Road, Hampstead; 8 April [1937], 2pp., 8vo. She expresses grief on the death of her first husband Sir John Reeve Brooke (1880-1937). '[...] of you in particular he often talked, when we had seen you, with admiration and joy - it was a particular pleasure to him when he had seen a person or heard them talk, to go over again what had been said, and your talk particularly charmed him. [...] | Don't forget me dear Robert, though I have no charming Reeve to bring you, love me a little for his sake'.
