Love letter to Felicity Hellaby ?Darling Felicity? in Freud?s uneven: ?How are you? Thank you for your letter I ve just spilt a bottle of Indian ink over my sheets. I did enjoy seeing you in London even though I did not really get a chance to talk to you which I had wanted to probably because of the cold and everything being rather chaotic. I thought you were looking terifficaly glamerous. Do come up and stay for whitsun if you would like to. I am staying at a very creamy place. Every morning many parcels arrive each one contains a dead animal mostly chickens and Roosters gamecocks sometimes a rabbit once a byby Pig. I have been making pictures of them I did one of a gamecock in a bucket of hot scummy water and the fumes and smell of decay was so overwhelming that it sent me into a coma. These animals atract a special kind of fat blue and green fly they are terribly depraved and eat so much of the carcas that they go mad, buss slowly through the air in a dizzy manner and dive with a splash into my paint water where they die. I ve bought a stuffed deap sea fish with a beak and spikes all over it like a Cactus of which I ve done a picture. Allso I got a wonderfull book about Deseases of the skin with amazing illustration you must come and see it. Have you seen the Horzion with my things? I have been riding a great deal here it really is one of the most exiting things there is it makes me feel about three times more alive and powerfull than I do otherwise. I put some money on a horse in the two thousand Guinnies next tuesday called ,Pink Flower? I may go to newmarket to see it run. I wish you could come along as well. Do write soon.?. - With some paper loss done by Freud. Tears. - Felicity Hellaby, his one-time girlfriend and fellow art student, who is also the subject of some of his earliest known paintings. - Folded and some tears to the upper side.
