SAYERS, Dorothy L. (1893-1957). An autograph postcard headed 24, Newland Street, Witham, Essex, dated 23.4.34, speculating on the future marital status of Lord Peter Wimsey, stating, "Thank you - I will do my best and get Lord P. married to Harriet, but so many people (mostly women) write & beg me to keep him single that it is difficult to please everybody. I am glad you understand & like Harriet- most people hate her. You need not be afraid of Hilary. Lord P. was born in 1890 & as Hilary was only about 16 in 1930, the disparity in years would be rather shocking. You may have worried that The Nine Tailors happened a year or two before Murder Must Advertise, so it isn't so surprising that Harriet isn't married."
