Scope and content
2 St Margaret's Road, Edinburgh. - The Toveys are sorry to hear of Julian's whooping cough, especially as it prevents her from coming: they wanted her to meet 'Mr Nimble Niceman' [John Wellcome Tovey]. They have got a room nearby for Johannes [Röntgen], and when he comes he and Tovey can 'hunt around for something more suitable'; hopes he and 'the Poet' [Bob Trevelyan] will arrive in time for the concert with the 'scene of Ariadne' [Ariadne's soliloquy from Act III of "The Bride of Dionysus', performed by the Reid Orchestra,12 February 1921].
