Re Cyril Mowbray Wells

Flendyshe, Fen Ditton, Cambridge. - '...you do not offer me congratulations on our successful resistance to the capture of the University by the Women.'

Since returning to England from Paris she has been very busy with various activities, which delayed her writing to Mary. It is very pleasant being settled in their own house in Cambridge, even though it is only a temporary one. Asks Mary when she intends to come to stay with her and Henry. They have got a cook, who is coming to them on 9 May for a month's trial period. Hopes that William and Isabel have arrived and are well, and sends her and Henry's love to them. Wishes that they could both come to see them, but is glad that William can see Mary. Adds that the cruet stand they want is a stand for oil and vinegar and sauces, and on the strength of what Mary said, Nora chose one in London that cost £7 or £8. Asks if they may wait about 'the other things' like china and glass, until they move into their new house, as they have the use of the Fawcett's things in the house where they are at present living. Sends a photograph of herself [not included], and explains that Henry's have not yet come. They only came to Cambridge from London the previous morning, but visited for a day the previous week as Henry had an examiners' meeting. Thinks the decoration of the house in which they are now living would amuse Mary; describes the drawing room, which they do not much like.

Would give him the greatest pleasure to come to her 'on the 19th', but fears that he will not be able to come to the Ad Eundem, 'as it falls in the Whitsuntide vacation', during which he hopes to go on holiday. Is unsure when they [he and his wife?] shall get away from London, but thinks that the chances of his being in Cambridge on the 19th are small. Suggests that they invite some other friend; is very disappointed to miss the opportunity of seeing her and Henry.
