12 Kensington Court, London - Thanks her for the pretty little books; would like to write her a respectable letter in French but the French language is like a pretty woman in tall tiara and magnificent coiffure: one adores her, but one cannot, one dare not, embrace her because that will cause a 'catastrophe de toilette'.

Mariemont, Edgbaston. - Will be pleased to propose him for membership of the Society for Psychical Research; glad the sentence in his book has had the 'desired effect' as many people previously seemed to think that 'special qualifications beside interest' were needed. Will enclose some S. P.
