TitleLetters from Irene Curzon, Baroness Ravensdale
Extent1 file
DateUndated [1930s]
DescriptionThese letters are addressed to 'Tom', and signed 'Nina'. They are all undated, but some have been given a conjectured date by Nicholas Mosley, which has been written in pencil on individual letters.
/1 and /2 discuss negotiations that Irene was engaged in to provide horses for Mosley's daughter Vivien, and possibly for himself.
/3 is dated 8 Oct, and mentions the repercussions of 'Sunday's events'. This is possibly a reference to the disturbances between fascists, anti-fascists and the police in the East End of London on 4 Oct 1936, known as the Battle of Cable Street.
