Item 75 - Letter from Caroline Trevelyan to Elizabeth Trevelyan

1 item

Welcombe, Stratford on Avon. - She and Sir George quite taken up with the elections; glad Charlie's is over [at Elland] and that though his majority was reduced it is still very good; expects 'a body of Socialists' voted against him though they could not run their own candidate. Wishes Charles would rest now, but thinks he will help other candidates. The poll at Stratford is as good as could be expected. Is recovering gradually; goes for a short walk every day; will be well enough to visit Elizabeth on 1 February. Glad Elizabeth thoroughly like[s] Nurse Catt; asks if Nurse Godwin comes on the 28th. Very interested in the results of the election for Elizabeth and Robert's constituency [Reigate]; fears it will be a 'hard fight'. Hopes Madame Grandmont is better. Asks whether she should come via Reading or through London.
