Collingsbourne, Addlestone, Surrey. - Thanks Trevelyan for his letter; is very glad he was pleased with the play ["Meleager"], which was 'great fun' to act, particularly the second act. Practice of 'actual performance' would benefit the final scene, which needs to go as 'smoothly as possible' to have its full effect. Also thanks Trevelyan for the book; did not know he had 'made so many incursions in the dramatic field'. Hopes Trevelyan will get some rest during his travels abroad, and that his cold and cough are better by now. Adds a postscript saying his own ballet will 'for better of for worse!' be 'shown to the world in the "London Mercury"'.

École Municipale de physique et de chimie industrielles, Cabinet du Directeur - Is happy to subscribe to the bibliography.

81 Delaware Mansions, Maida Vale - Asks if he may sublet Frazer's chambers at Goldsmiths Buildings until his official move in date of June.

Trin[ity] Coll[ege], Cambridge. - Thanks Elizabeth for her letter; [he and Charles] were lucky as 'it is so difficult to get wedding presents which are not bores'. Wishes she had been at Welcombe last week; the weather was perfect, the 'primroses and daffodils and violets were all out', it was 'the best week of the English year, and at its very best in Warwickshire'. Wonders if she will like Northumberland; hopes she will have a chance to see this summer. Is looking forward to coming to Holland for the wedding very much.

Originally enclosing the Glyndebourne tickets for [Mozart's "Marriage of] Figaro" and "‎Zauberflöte", as well as the libretto for "Figaro" and a German "‎Zauberflöte". Roy Randal[l] was at his reading yesterday, the 'only human being there' at what was a 'very seedy hole-in-the-corner affair'. Randall seemed to be expecting Julian and Ursula for the weekend, which 'seems inconsistent' with them coming to the Shiffolds on Saturday, but they would be glad to see them.

Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Happy they will see Elizabeth soon; Rounton [Grange, the home of the Bells] will be a good place to break the journey. Annie [Philips] will enjoy Elizabeth's visit. A pleasure to look at Julian's photograph and think that he is now so well; glad Nurse Catt is recovered. Enticknap is to bring Gussie up on 28 July, and will stay in the house while Gussie goes into lodgings; Keith will arrange it when he returns from a week away. The 'young men at the Portico' buy their own food and pay Mrs Davidson to cook and housekeep for them. The 'W.S. [Women's Suffrage] debate was very interesting, but not very satisfactory... it seems rather an "impasse". Postscript saying it is very kind of Elizabeth to offer to play at the part; asks if they can talk it over when she comes.
