Scope and content

Trinity College, Cambridge. - Sat next to Julian's father-in-law [Bernard Darwin] in Hall last night and talked about the Shiffolds. The Russells have bought a small house but cannot move in for another month, so Peter and Conrad are in a boarding house. None of them can visit the Shiffolds at the moment as there is so much to do, but they hope to do so soon. Has not yet heard from her Chinese friend. The BBC does not want him; he is to lecture at Trinity, which he prefers. Enjoyed his visit very much: a 'great joy' to see the Trevelyans again.
