Stuk 65 - Letter from Caroline Trevelyan to Elizabeth Trevelyan

8, Grosvenor Crescent, S.W. - Got Elizabeth's card this morning; almost hoped it would 'summon' her back [since the baby is due]; she and Sir George go [to Welcombe] by the 12.15 train. London is 'most gloomy' and the streets and shops are unpleasantly crowded. All that needs to be done is for Mckenzie to come and 'look down [Sir George's] ear'. Charles came yesterday evening; looked tired; hopes to leave on Thursday. Pauline 'can just walk'; Mary is well. Originally encloses a letter from Lady Rendel which 'may amuse' Elizabeth. Has seen nobody in town but H[umphry?] Ward and 'G. Russell' [George W. E. Russell?] whom she met whilst 'rushing about all day'.
