Stuk 166 - Letter from Caroline Trevelyan to Elizabeth Trevelyan

1 item

Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Wonders how Elizabeth is getting on, and whether the 'hunters' have disturbed her; the 'whole family seems to centre at Seatoller now' though expects she does not see much of C[harles] and G[eorge] during the day. Asks if they are going south soon, and how the weather has been. She and Sir George have had some country walks despite the showers. Many enquiries about Elizabeth; tells everyone she is coming in August. Hears the 'school children walked in a procession round the village & the church bells were rung on [the] wedding day'. Had a letter from George [William Erskine?] Russell about a wedding present but cannot find it; Elizabeth will find the present with the other things at Gr[osvenor] Cr[escen]t; will be 'amusing... to sort out all your belongings'. Hopes she has better news of her aunt.
