Concerning [Enfield?] and the Bishop of London's proposal to divide it into two.

House of Lords - Is sorry to hear about Sir James' eyesight; is enclosing a subscription for the bibliography.

2 Elm Court, Temple - Is delighted to have received a copy of the 2 volume edition of the 'Adonis'.

Farringford, Freshwater, I[sle of] W[ight]. - Does not know Trevelyan's current address, but so is sending this via Cole. Wants to ask Trevelyan about a bookcase he 'left as a fixture at Roundhurst Farm', which according to Cole Trevelyan discovered Mr Blaydes had taken away and insisted upon his returning it. Regrets the day Blaydes ever became the Tennysons' tenant: they have had 'no end of bother with him & lawyers' and he has taken the bookcase away again. Asks Trevelyan to let her know as soon as possible whether he 'sanctioned Mr Blaydes to take it'. They have been spending a month at Aldworth; was very 'refreshing to see neither little Roundhurst nor any of its neighbourhood altered'. Hears from the Enticknaps that Trevelyan is building himself a house and has found a wife - '"and she is a nice lady"'. Hallam [her husband] sends remembrances.

The Mill House. - Describes a dream in which he thought Bessie, 'his St Andrews friend' was in his bedroom. The servants have told him the butcher's wife says that the four 'single gentlemen' she has known who took this house were all married within a year; pretends to be scared of this prospect. Encloses Luzac's bill. His mother was also confused by his sonnet [printed in the "Speaker"], which he explains at length; refers in passing to Bessie's belief that 'cigarettes are really exceptionally detrimental to health'. Has done some work over the last couple of days, and is getting on quite well. Finishes the letter next morning. Is glad she is going to Eldering; hopes she likes his teaching. Thinks her and [her cousin] Louise's plan to send her aunt away to get well is good, but it will be difficult to persuade them. Mien [Rontgen's] present sounds 'delightful'; 'just like her' to take so much trouble. Mr Kattendijke's present sounds good as well. Expects the Vondel exhibition will not be open when he comes; jokes that things should have been arranged better.

Notebook consisting of four distinct texts. The first is a selection of remarks from TS 213, the second (pp 136-264) is a revision of MS 120, the third (pp 265-315) is original material and the fourth relates to Part I of the Investigations. At the end of the written portion is a letter to Kari [Klingenberg], a friend from Skjolden, 2 Aug. 1945.

Refers to his disappointment at 'the two answers from Oxford.' Thinks it would be better to postpone an application to Professor Seeley 'till another attempt has been made at Oxford, through Mr [T.H.?] Green.' Informs Sidgwick that the emblem and the motto [for the Free Christian Union?] have been changed in conformity with his suggestions, and with regard to the pamphlet, Martineau asks him if to give him advice for its improvement. Mentions that he has 'already profited by some friendly criticisms'. Admits that he has not read the proof yet, and predicts that he shall probably find plenty of faults.
