Letter. Condition: Very Good. Autograph; 5.25" X 7"; Manuscript note Signed by "David" [William David Ormsby-Gore, 5th Baron Harlech and British Ambassador to the U.S.A. during the Kennedy Administration] to Rowland Evans on personal printed letterhead. Letterhead reads "Wood Hill / Oswestry, / Shropshire, / Oswestry 3134". Text… of note (1 leaf written on both sides) "Dear Rowly, / You and K were such / wonderful friends to us when / we were in Washington that / I was particularly touched by / your most moving letter about / Sissie. // I have such very / happy memories of when we / were all together and I / shall be everlastingly grateful / to you both for them. / I hope I may see / you when I come over in / October. / Meanwhile I thank / you with all my heart for / your letter. With my love to / K. // Yours ever / David" [1967] Note measures 5.25" X 7" William David Ormsby-Gore, 5th Baron Harlech KCMG PC DL (1918 â" 1985), known as David Ormsby-Gore until June 1961 and as Sir David Ormsby-Gore from then until February 1964, was a British diplomat and Conservative politician. Ormsby-Gore knew Kennedy well from his time in London, where his father Joseph P. Kennedy had served as American Ambassador. Like Macmillan, Ormsby-Gore was distantly related to Kennedy, but had a closer relationship than did Macmillan with the President-elect and his brother Robert. Six months after Kennedy took office Ormsby-Gore was in Washington, D.C. Referred to under the Kennedy administration as "our kind of Ambassador", he supplied Kennedy with a stream of advice and Cuban cigars via his diplomatic bag. He was almost a resident at the White House, being more a friend of the family than a mere ambassador. His wife Sylvia "Sissie" Lloyd Thomas died in 1967 in a car crash. After President Kennedy's assassination, Ormsby-Gore spent some time with Jacqueline Kennedy, even vacationing with her in Cambodia. In 1968 he proposed marriage to her, but, she did not accept. The Evans, to whom this note was written, were very much at the heart of "The Georgetown Set" during the Kennedy Administration. PROVENANCE: Rowland Evans was a provocative newspaper columnist, commentator and author who antagonized liberal politicians and championed conservative causes. He left Yale and enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1942 during World War II and was discharged in 1944 because of malaria. In 1963, Mr. Evans and Mr. Novak began writing ''Inside Report,'' an insider's view of politics that was published four times a week until Mr. Evans retired in 1993. Mr. Evans and Robert Novak began their work as columnists in the early 1960's, a time when newspaper columnists wielded outsize influence in national politics. The pair pioneered in transferring that influence to the medium of cable television with the political discussion program ''Evans & Novak'' -- carried on CNN from that cable network's beginning. Rowland Evans and his wife Kay (Katherine Winton Evans), also a respected writer and editor, were mainstays on the Washington social scene, hosting many memorable gatherings in their handsome Georgetown house -- to which flocked influential and remarkable people drawn from journalism, politics and general society over the decades from the 1960s to the 2000s. Both Evans and Novak became more predictably conservative over the years, particularly during the Reagan years. Reportedly, both columnists voted for JFK in 1960 and for Lyndon Johnson in 1964. Evans earned a place on Richard Nixon's infamous "Enemies List." Novak reported that Evans had JFK as a guest for the first dinner party the latter attended as President Elect. Kay and Rowland Evans has a particularly close friendship with Robert F. Kennedy, his wife Ethel and their family.; Signed by Author.

Papier. Condition: Sehr gut. Cutout - Autograph des britischen Adligen LORD HARLECH ( WILLIAM ORMSBY GORE ,2nd BARON HARLECH 1819 - 1904 /// Signiert signed signée autograph autographe autogramm /// Wikipedia: William Richard Ormsby-Gore, 2nd Baron Harlech (3 March 1819 - 26 June 1904), was an Anglo-Irish peer and Member of Parl…iament. Lord Harlech was the younger son of William Ormsby-Gore and Mary Jane Ormsby. He was educated at Eton College and later purchased an Ensigncy in the 53rd Foot. He purchased a Lieutenancy in 1839 and exchanged into the 13th Light Dragoons in 1841, purchasing a Captaincy in 1846 and a Majority in 1852. In the 1841 general election Ormsby-Gore was elected unopposed as a Conservative Party MP for County Sligo. In 1852 general election there was a contest for the seat and he was defeated by a nationalist-inclined Liberal candidate. He returned to Parliament in a by-election on 17 May 1858 as MP for Leitrim, a seat he held until 1876. Ormsby-Gore bought an estate at Derrycarne near Dromod in County Leitrim and went on to rise to high office in the county: he became High Sheriff there for 1857, and was appointed as Lord Lieutenant of County Leitrim in 1878, which he remained until his death. On 14 January 1876, Ormsby-Gore's elder brother John was created Baron Harlech. As he had no sons,[2] the peerage was created with a special remainder to his younger brother, meaning that he was made heir presumptive of the peerage should the first Baron die without legitimate male heirs. This was an unusual procedure and it was determined at the time that the last such case had been 45 years before. As it happened, the first Baron died on 15 June 1876 and Ormsby-Gore became the second Baron Harlech. Harlech was appointed by the Lord Lieutenant of Shropshire to be a Deputy Lieutenant of the county on 22 February 1882.[3] /// Standort Wimregal PKis-Box1-U033 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 10.
