Scope and content
Northlands, Englefield Green, Surrey. - Sends best wishes for the new year, in which she hopes 'Paul will become an elderly and extraordinary robust person', Bessie will remain just the same, and 'the Poet' [Robert] will 'put forth a great work'. Donald [Tovey] caught a chill on his visits to East Lothian which makes her worry about his concert tour to Manchester and Bolton. He has to be at Englefield Green on Tuesday night, as he needs to find some music for Lady Hallé, and feels he needs to go to Worplesdon [to see his parents] for lunch on Tuesday; asks if Robert Trevelyan could spend Tuesday night at Englefield Green. Is in very low spirites; thinks she will have to go to Valescure in April after all.
