Entertaining a lady friend

A landlord writes to Michael Crane, 1968
From the Letter in the Attic project

Michael Crane was born in 1942.  He graduated in 1967 from Leeds University and was doing temporary work in language schools in Brighton at the time of the exchange of letters.

In 1968, whilst living at a hotel in Brunswick Place, Hove, Michael received a letter from the proprietor, complaining that Michael had been entertaining a 'lady friend' in his room and by late December, Michael was evicted from the hotel.

Entirely against rules and regulations
