. . . recently we drove to montauk & remembered meeting
peter beard . . . a long, long time ago . . . ( most likely the most
handsome man we ever met . . . ) we walked uptown with
jerome hill . . . peter beard seemed to be waiting for us . . .
east side corner of 71st st., & madison ave., he talked about
minnie cushing & talked about cassis, france . . . where jerome
owned a truly magnificent house on the sea : with its half-circle
stone theatre outside; inside his house: was there a small
camille corot? trees in the wind : the most delightful landscape -
french country side - tiny leaves on the trees . . .
how long ago was it ? . . .
