Part of Papers of Robert Calverley Trevelyan and Elizabeth Trevelyan
Welcombe, Stratford on Avon. - Glad to give good news of Caroline, who has 'really taken care of herself this time' and is now quite comfortable and getting stronger, taking a walk each day. Good to have news of Julian; their family is 'not given to crawling in after life' but they tended to take to it early as children when it was 'the only honourable method of getting about'. Shares Robert's admiration of [Arnold Bennett's] "Clayhanger"; they too plan to re-read "The Old Wives' Tale" aloud. Discusses Cornelius Nepos's "Life of Atticus".
