8 The Broadway, Hammersmith, W.—Praises Greg’s notes on John Phillip (as reprinted from The Library).

109 St George's Square, S.W. -- Is sorry to hear of his accident, asks that he accept one of her copies of Bridle Paths: is glad to send to anyone who remembers as she does.

75, Eaton Rise, Ealing, W. -- Sends the book and will be glad to know what Munby thinks of it, says the Morning Post alleges he wastes his time on trivial topics, that he has no critical power, or ideas, depressing for a man of sixty-eight who cannot change his spots.

Whorlton Hall, Barnard Castle -- Thanks him for the gift; is now in Durham and admires the country and people; is enjoying her time with the George Darwins.

Pyrford Rough, Woking -- Returns vol. II, regrets that it is only privately published, would enjoy reviewing it; notes the gorse, broom, and rhododendron blooming, and that he passed three nightingales 'new abaysshed' as Chaucer says, and not yet back to full melody. This letter is followed by a list, also in Tuckwell's hand[?] listing the younger Darwin generation.

Two letters written from Inglefield, Gomshall, Nr Guildford. The first, dated 25 February 1907 announces that she has moved to the country for her health, and thanks him for his nice words about her book; the second, 9 Aug. 1907 concerns arrangements to meet.

Park Nook, Prince’s Park, Liverpool.—Asks about the types and borders used by Thomas Berthelet.

75 Eaton Rise, Ealing, London, W. -- Given Munby's scrupulous habits of correspondence, Dobson wonders if Munby received the Evelyn Prefaces, which he addressed to "Beach Hotel, Seaton."

Cannes -- Admires Mrs Litchfield, who has given her a copy of A Century of Darwin Letters; has been ill, which has delayed her departure; refers to tensions between France and Germany.

Park Nook, Prince’s Park, Liverpool.—Comments on Greg’s list of books printed by Thomas Berthelet.

42. Kidbrook Park Rd., Blackheath S.E. Notifies him the book is on its way and hopes he approves of her choice of his poem.
