Remembered Friends

Died  on  23 April 1915, of sunstroke, at Lemnos,   Rupert Brooke, the almost excessively pretty poet….drooled after by Hon. Evan Morgan with cotton tissues.

Evan's biographer William Cross, FSA Scot  doubts their paths collided at Ottoline Morrell’s Garsington Manor except in the myths ...

Evan's first visit to Garsington Manor, near Oxford was in 1916, the year after the death of Rupert Brooke.
