The note itself was hand-written by Errol Flynn to his daughter's teacher asking her to excuse the daughter for being late to school. It reads:Dear Miss Arnold, Would you please excuse Rory for being a bit late? I had no car available to get her promptly to school. Kindest personal regards, Errol Flynn Rory Flynn was the second daughter of Flynn and his 2nd wife, Nora Eddington, a Hollywood actress at the time.
