Minley Grange, Farnborough, Hampshire. - Thanks Mrs Trevelyan a 'thousand times' for her help [regarding the "Song" article for "Grove's Dictionary of Music & Musicians", see 18/39]; asks her also to thank Professor Röntgen. Glad to have her opinion on modern Dutch song-writers; a 'great relief' that she had made 'exactly the same conclusions'. Knew Verhulst, Nicolai, and Hol already, but the other names on the list she sent were 'quite new... and [she] hardly liked to trust [her] own judgment'. If she needs to write a separate article on "Wilhelmus van Nassouwe" [the Dutch National anthem", will 'gratefully accept Prof. Rontgen's offer of an introduction to Professor van Duyse' to discuss it. Hopes that if Mrs Trevelyan is passing through London they may manage to meet; she and her husband will return to Chester Square again for a while after 23 April; meanwhile the fresh air is doing her good.
