1 item

Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Good weather yesterday, and Julian had two drives out: he went up early to the Lead Mill with Sir George, who 'walked home shooting and got a hare' which has been sent to Elizabeth; Caroline and Booa [Mary Prestwich] then took him out to Donkin Rigg Farm in the Victoria. This morning it is wet, and he is 'playing about with the engine', with Hearn [the butler] keeping an eye on him. Hopes he will have a good journey tomorrow. Asks Elizabeth where she got the 'ink pills'; would like to give Robin [Price?] some for his journey. Has left a Liberty toy swan on wheels in the dining room at Gr[osvenor] Cr[escent], which Elizabeth should take and give to Julian when he wants something new. Hopes he is '"set up" for the winter (as Annie [Philips] would say)'; sad that the nice time with Elizabeth and the boy has ended.
