"I am intrigued about your writing! Will it pass the censor...", Daphne du Maurier: (1907 - 1989) British Author, T.L.S. Menabilly Par Cornwall, 29th November 1965, 'Bing', two pages, to Maureen Baker-Munton, ('Dearest Maureen'), 'I am intrigued about your writing! Will it pass the censor, I ask myself?? Perhaps another "The Naked Lunch" or "The Carpet Baggers." Seriously, though, what fun. You must let me judge when its gone halfway. By-the-way, I had a routes card pathetically from your mother, and I wrote back to her at once, praising you all, such good friends to me, etc, so she will be pleased. I wish the poor old girl could come over'. In the post script Daphne details a section from the recent Airborne Memorial Service which her daughter Tessa attended 'such a strange, and rather consoling thing, which you would say was psycho... I was struck by the fact that the Lesson in the service, only one, and read by Sir Kenneth Darling, was the chapter about The Wisdom of Solomon... which was Moper's deathly routes thing he used to read out loud to himself, and in our early married days we used to have a ritual about it, he used to read it to me aloud, and when we visited Lanteglos church'. Upon writing to Sir Kenneth about the reading she discovered that it had been included in the service this year for the first time. 'Well...... Maureen, honestly, dont you think its queer? As if Moper, with all his gang "up there", was taking an interest in this year's Memorial, and somehow got the Wisdom of Solomon into the service on purpose, by telepathy, as a kind of sign'. 'Moper' was Daphne's pet name for her husband Sir Frederick Browning.
