Scope and content
The Park, Prestwich, Manchester. - Julian and Ursula's brief visit has 'passed off most pleasantly' except for the rain of the last five days; they arrived on Monday evening and started home this morning. Much admires Julian's new overcoat for the fit and the tweed, which is 'so good in shade & quality'. They were 'highly pleased with all they saw at the Red Rose Guild stalls yesterday'; Ursula had a 'good talk' with Mr [Bernard] Leach and Mr [William Bower] Dalton about their exhibits; after lunch they then visited 'the fine collection of Watercolours at the Whitworth Art Gallery'. Much enjoyed having 'such easy guests, good talkers and considerate in every way'. Wishes they could have given her a better report about Bessie's eyes, but is glad 'Wireless has come in' so Bessie can listen to 'music, speeches and news every evening'. Hopes Bessie's new chauffeur drives carefully, since Julian tells her Matthews has given that up. The autumn 'tints' will be very beautiful in Surrey; all their trees are nearly bare. Hopes she can come and spend a week at the Shiffolds in the second week of January, and read aloud to Bessie. Julian and Ursula hope to 'go for Winter Sports to Austria at Christmas'. Sends love to Bessie and Robert, and regards to Miss Busch if she is staying with them.
