'I have been reading the papers lately and I am astonished read what Mr. Heathcot-Amery has done. His people are highly respected in the neighbourhood. His people have served this county ...educated at Eton and Christ Church, he didn't waste any time from what I can see. He must have been quite a speaker, too. He was the private secretary to Lord Leigh, while he was on the Palestine Commission. He has been out in East Africa, he is now living at Tiverton.'
