Scope and content

Announces that he has promised to go to Oxford on 13 [May], and can be back on 15 [May], but warns that [Cambridge] 'will be rather empty, as the undergraduates will all be gone. States that the exam is from 8 to 13 [May], and that the most festive week is 23 to 30 [May]. States that he is free on 6 [June], and explains that he goes to town for the night of 3 [June], as a part of his work ends on 2 [June]. Tells her to come when she likes. Explains that Mrs Peile lives one and a half miles out of Cambridge, 'so it would perhaps be hard to ask her to get lodgings.'
