Scope and content
Encloses Heffer's cheque [not included] for the books; 'those of Dr. [Norman?] Ferrers that were of no use for the Library and some 30 or 40 Nat. Sci. books condemned by Miss Freund.' Reports that she was at Newnham College the previous day and heard that Nora was away. Hopes that she is having a nice time. Relates that Mr and Mrs Lamb are very deliberately making up their minds to send another daughter [Dorothy; to Newnham] in October', and states that she has told them to write to Nora. Reports that there is no news of S[ingcha] H[ushoo], but that she has written to ask for some. Adds that her Uncle Henry Cunningham, her mother and her Aunt Carry have all read, or are in the process of reading it, and all find it very interesting.
