'Now you know what you've got to face at the Jamaica Inn' DU MAURIER DAPHNE: (1907-1989) British Author. An amusing, lengthy A.L.S., Daphne, six pages, 8vo, Bodiniels (Bodmin), n.d. ('2.30' [p.m.], annotated in pencil in an unidentified hand March? 1930), to [Foy Quiller-Couch]. Du Maurier announces 'I couldn't let the day pass without telling you of my incredible encounter with Mrs. Burghand' and continues to recount a conversation ('Forgive the coarseness, but I felt nobody else in the world would appreciate it but you….'), in full, 'Mrs. Burghand (laden to the hilt with apples, marrows, flowers, baskets and other tokens of hideous efficiency. "Hullo - good gracious! You don't get any fatter, do you?" Daphne (apologising) "No, I'm afraid I don't. As a matter of fact I've just been to get some medicine from Mr. Isbel." Mrs. Burghand (sharply) "Why, what's wrong with you now?" Daphne (meekly) "I suffer from ceaseless stomach ache" Mrs Burghand (brutally) "Its wind I expect" Daphne (haughtily) "Not at all - its not that sort of pain" Mrs Burghand "Well, I don't know I'm sure. You must have eaten something to disagree with you" Daphne (still haughty) "I don't think so" Mrs Burghand "That's generally the root of all trouble. Why - I had such a time with Mr. Burghand the other night, you wouldn't believe it. Food poisoning of course. I thought I was going to lose him" Daphne (making suitable noise of sympathy) "Dear me" Mrs Burghand (warming to her subject) "All the night I was up with him. Do you know that in less than two hours he had to be put into 3 different clean pairs of pyjamas? And he was sick at the same time" Daphne (passing out entirely) "Oh dear.." Mrs Burghand "It was the pilchards I believe. We had 'em for dinner. I remember I felt sick and peculiar in the middle, when I was eating them, and I went out to the lavatory and sat there for half an hour but nothing happened. But if you'd seen poor Mr. Burghand…" Daphne (losing her head) "Yes, I can quite imagine - I mean to say - well.." Mrs Burghand "Of course he's all right now. Once it was over it was over. We're going up on Saturday to see our boy married" Daphne (conjuring a vision of the entire Burghand family "in extremes" up the aisle) "I do hope that - er - everything will be all right" Mrs Burghand "Oh! Rather. Good bye, take care of that pain" (laughing a shade too heartily she disappeared down the slip vaguely murmuring something about pilchards)' Du Maurier further reflects 'Her words have filled me with fear that a new disease - Bodminielenza - may be lurking in the air. I have accordingly taken a table spoonful of Isbel's mixture and am counting feverishly every pair of pyjamas this side of the river. Good bye - I am very very ill.' and concludes 'Now you know what you've got to face at the Jamaica Inn. I hope you prove equal to the strain.' A wonderful letter. Some very light, minor dust staining, otherwise VG Foy Quiller-Couch - daughter of British writer Arthur Quiller-Couch (1863-1944), and a life-long friend of Du Maurier. Indeed, Du Maurier was accompanied by Foy Quiller-Couch when she became inspired with the storyline for her novel Jamaica Inn. In 1930, apparently around the time of the present letter, the two ladies were staying at Jamaica Inn and went riding on Bodmin Moor. They became lost in bad weather conditions and apparently sheltered for some time in a derelict cottage on the moor but were eventually led back to Jamaica Inn by their horses.
