Casa di Boccaccio, Settignano, Florence, Italy. - Originally enclosing 'a few more stamps' and some newspapers about the bicentenary of [Christopher] Wren's death; the original plan for St. Paul's is interesting. Has had a letter from Elizabeth about her visit to Bedales, which she seems to have enjoyed. Glad Julian is 'getting on so well'; must come for a weekend next term, perhaps to stay with the [Thomas Sturge] Moores; by then Julian will 'no doubt be swimming like a seal or a penguin' both literally and metaphorically. Will be returning home about 20 March, when Elizabeth will also be returning from the Netherlands. Reminds Julian to use a three penny stamp if he writes again.
