Description | Correspondence with Paul Hammond, largely about sailing and yachting. Correspondence with Susan Sedgwick Hammond in 1967 discusses Bertrand Russell, giving Leonard Elmhirst's impressions of him. Letters in 1969 discuss Leonard's courting of Dorothy Straight in the 1920s, their relationship, and Leonard's grief at her death in 1968. Later letters discuss Dorothy's early life and suitors, and mention letters from her youth which Leonard sends to Susan. |
