Letter. Etat : 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. …
