Portée et contenu

Northlands, Englefield Green, Surrey. - In answer to Tovey's letters, states 'categorically' that she has never thought, nor 'led any other creature to think' she thought, nor feared anyone ever thought, that Tovey had said or done anything that anyone 'from Guilhermina Casals outwards could interpret' as being wrong 'from any man to any woman, let alone any woman who was the wife of his friend [Pablo Casals]'. Even the first 'angry frightened lines' she sent Donald, which he regards as 'so foul an insult', show this, and she would have written the same if the three of them had been men, as she does feel his 'host and friend had reason to feel himself neglected and ridiculous'. Is not afraid of 'gossip or even slander' either for him or for herself. Mr Strecker showed her Donald's letter to Casals written at Liverpool, from which she expected the reply, though not its 'gentle and dignified' tone. They will 'not allude to the matter' when they meet. Does not understand about [Adolf] Busch or what she has done, but since Donald says he has not told him about Casals, hopes there is no harm done. Tells him to come home or not as is best for him.
