The fine clear weather has improved RJ's health. Provides a testimonial for Mr Pickering who wants to apply for the post of auditor of the Uppingham and Oakham school estates. RJ has 'no news except I am sorry to say that real famine is pressing on parts of Ireland and the West Highlands'.

Metelliano. - Received Trevelyan's gift of verse from the Shiffolds with pleasure; had also recently read a letter of Trevelyan's to Nicky [Mariano] with good news. Will be back in Rome for New Year's eve, might perhaps come to England in May. Asks if Trevelyan is likely to come to Italy. Tonino and Ebe ask to be remembered.

Postmarked Englefield Green. - Would like to leave out a line in the 'Alas for thee, Theseus' chorus [in Act I of "The Bride of Dionysus"].

La Fortezza, Aulla, Lunigiana. - He and Bessie are 'comfortably settled in this castle' which is a real one: he is not mistaking a hotel for a castle like Don Quixote. Describes the surrounding countryside. The Waterfields have been here for almost a year; gives details of the building and its history. He and Bessie are well, though have had bad colds recently. Hopes his parents are enjoying their time in Rome; had thought they would return for the election; everything seems to be going well [for the Liberal Party] so far. Hopes Charles may still get an appointment; is sure he would deserve it. Haldane at the War Office is 'rather comic', but he 'may just be the right man for the job'.

Jebb's death is 'very sad'; Robert had little opportunity to see him, but the one time he heard him talking at length, he thought him 'delightful'. Bessie sends love and will write soon. Robert is 'well started' on his work again; thinks this place will be as good for wriring as Ravello.

Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Has not yet transferred the second fifty pounds to Bob's account since the lawyers have not yet 'transferred the personalty' [personal property of Florence Cacciola Trevelyan, which has come to George and Bob on the death of her husband Salvatore Trevelyan]. Mary is going to the Netherlands again in the first week of October, to work. He and Janet are going to Cambridge on Monday to look for a house; he will take up 'residence and full work there [as Regius Professor of History] in January'. Their mother was taken 'seriously ill' a few days ago; she has a nurse, but the doctor thinks she is over the immediate danger. George thinks it 'unlikely she will live more than another year' and that she will get to Welcombe again, though the plan was for her and Sir George to go in about three weeks. Their father 'seems fairly well, though on a permanently lower level than last year'.

Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Glad to hear Elizabeth is comfortably settled at Florence; hopes she and Bob are enjoying their time with the Berensons; supposes they will reach Ravello around Christmas. Charles and Mary are back from 'ten days in their constituency with meetings every night'. There was a Women's Liberal Association meeting at Cambo on Wednesday; Charles chaired and Miss [Florence?] Balgarnie spoke, and it was an excellent meeting. Charles is now 'first rate' at public speaking, and Mary also can speak 'quite nicely'. Had a letter from Miss Somerville about the Westminster bazaar, which made forty pounds; she said the 'very nice things' which Elizabeth had sent sold quickly. Good to hear that Elizabeth and Robert's [new] house has got on so well; probably good for her to have a quiet time before she has to start thinking about moving, though it is possible to have so much. Caroline herself sometimes feels that at Wallington if she sees no one but Sir George for a week, though he - and Robert - are the 'best of company'. Hopes Elizabeth will come to Welcombe for Easter, when Robert is with his friends [on George Moore's reading holiday]. George is coming to them next week, and they go to Welcombe on 27 December. There is a 'great fuss' at the Grosvenor Cr[escen]t Club: the proprietress seems 'unsatisfactory', while the food and management have been 'very bad'; Caroline had decided to leave before she hear about the row. Julia seems to be the 'centre of it'; Caroline will send Elizabeth her letter. Julia is not 'very delightful or interesting, but she is perfectly respectable & not at all fast!'. Caroline paid Elizabeth's subscription on 17 January, so she had better write a resignation letter before then if she does not want to carry on; it is a great pity, as it 'was really a nice club at one time'. There will be a 'school treat' on Thursday, so she is hoping the mild weather will last. Is reading 'such a pleasant life of Burne Jones by his wife' ["Memorials of Edward Burne-Jones"]. Calls the Pre-Raphaelites 'an innocent high minded set, with all their absurdities'.

2 Raymond Buildings, Gray's Inn - CL would like WW to review his second volume ['Principles of Geology'] in the Quarterly. 'The part finished contains my whole theory of the continual changes now going in the animate world and the processes by which the state of the same at any given period is communicated, in other words the fossilizing of recent remains'. Reinnard is coming out with a work on the Indian Archipelago in which his facts regarding recent elevation confirm and 'go far beyond' CL's first volume. The medical, literary and law professors at King's College have been well chosen, but the same can not be said for Botany, Zoology and Experimental philosophy.

Trinity College - WW would like RJ 'to look over my recent lucubrations, if you have time to do it carefully' ['Astronomy and General Physics Considered with Reference to Natural Theology', 1833]. WW wants it criticised.

Letter of introduction for his nephew who 'is going up to Trinity next month'.
