Wednesday 23 July 1930: 'Lady L[avery] discussed the air crash [...] I was driving down to the Temple with Vita [Sackville-West], & we bought a Standard in the gateway. "Titled victims" she said [...] Then I read Lady Ednam, Marquis Dusserre (for so they reported him) & then in the stop press Lord Dufferin [goes on to record Harold Nicolson, Sackville-West's husband's, reaction to news]'.
