MS note in hand of G. M. Trevelyan at the top of the letter: 'Copy of letter of T. B. M.'s Announcing Hannah's engagement to Charles E. Trevelyan and describing him to his other favourite sister Margaret Cropper. Quoted largely but not fully in the Life and Letters [of Lord Macaulay, by G. O. Trevelyan]. The parts there omitted are here erased in pencil by G. O. T...' An asterisk in red pencil by the last sentence matches with a note to the side, also in red and in an unknown hand: 'Not in fact so. Many discrepancies between these erasures and quoted version'. G. M. Trevelyan also notes above the date, 'Margaret was dead ere it reached her'.

On the back of the final pages there is a note by Edward and Margaret Cropper (née Denman, his third wife): 'The whole of this letter is placed unreservedly in your power to do as like with about publishing all or parts. We should like if agreeable to you to have all concerning Margaret published, as this letter happens to put before one exactly his feelings to his two favourite sisters - & is both curious and touching. E. & M. C.' G. M. Trevelyan adds: 'The Croppers' note to G. O. T. in sending him a copy of this letter for his biography. A generous note'.

40 Ennismore Gardens, S.W. - Wanted to visit Bobbie [at school] this week, but since it is Ascot races thinks it will be best to avoid that railway line until next week. Sorry there is whooping cough at the other school, which she expects is Mr Moreton's. Will bring him a pair of cricket shoes; supposes he wants them to have spikes. Asks if he can swim better this year: he should learn to if it does not tire him. It is 'very hot & dusty' in London, but is sure the butterflies are enjoying the weather. Bob's butterfly book has 'come home very nicely bound'; asks whether he wants it at school. Georgie sends his love; she is reading to him about Croesus, which he is enjoying.

Thanks his mother for her letter. Thinks Georgie has nearly recovered from his cold. Has received a letter from 'Grandpapa Philips', and will write to him today. There was meant to have been a [cricket] match with Bracknell last Thursday but it rained so they did not come; it also rained on Friday, so the match will now be next Monday. Robert is in the eleven, at square leg. Has not got a cover for his bat, but can 'easily' get one by sending the measurements. Does not think Georgie wants any paper, as Robert 'can rule the un-ruled paper' for him; Robert would like a few stamps, as he has not got many. Hopes 'Papa is nearly well, and will be able to come'.
