9 Grand Parade, St. Leonards, Sussex. - Her husband sends 'thanks and greetings'; very kind of Trevelyan to remember him. He has gone downhill a great deal since last Christmas: he is now 'almost entirely bedridden' [with arthritis], cannot use his right hand and is hardly able to use his right, and his joints are very painful; he is pleased to know he is 'not forgotten by friends'. Ursula Wood is 'wonderful & his friendship with her, by letter, is his greatest pleasure'.

9 Grand Parade, St Leonards, Sussex. - Her husband asks her to thank Trevelyan very much for sending his book of essays ["Windfalls"], and to say how much he is enjoying them; everyone else is looking forward to reading them once he has finished. His arthritis is getting worse, as are the other complications, and 'his life is very weary'; friends' sympathy and thoughts are therefore a 'great consolation'. Ursula Wood is 'wonderful': it cannot be easy to keep up a '(now) one-sided correspondence with someone of another generation whom you have never even seen!'; they are 'very grateful' to her.
