19 June 1905.
My dear Clemence,
I enclose:—
A letter from Basil,
Kate’s letter to you,
Two letters from A. Parker to Laurence.
I will fall in with either Kate’s scheme or Basil’s, if the rest of you can agree on either. For my own part I should prefer to do as A. Parker suggests, and let things continue on as at present till Aunt Kate’s death or at anyrate till the £150 in hand is exhausted. When either of those events arrives, it is to be hoped and expected that we shall all be either dead or richer than now. But I will not oppose any solution which finds favour with the rest of you; and I can quite well pay either £93.15.0 or £125; only, as I have just spent £70 on my new book (a sum which the sale of the whole edition will not bring in), and may want to spend another similar sum before two years are out, and am contributing by instalments of £20 a special subscription of £100 to the College, and have indulged in the luxury of an assistant, who costs £50, and have been rather extravagant in the matter of foreign travel,—it would reduce my balance at the bankers below the comfortable margin which would enable me to flee to the continent at any moment with a year’s income in my pockets, or lend a hundred or two at a moment’s notice to a friend who might want it. I don’t know whether the way Basil proposes to dispose of your money has your sanction.
Your affectionate brother
A. E. Housman.
