Scope and content
Northlands, Englefield Green, Surrey. - Is sorry Trevelyan had such trouble getting home. Has heard from Hugh Godley, to whom he wrote from Budapest, that Cleg [F. S. Kelly]'s second concert was 'nothing like what Miss Weisse's account made of it': reasonably well attended, Cleg fairly cheerful afterwards and his playing 'enjoyable on the whole'. Would have gone to hear Cleg yesterday had he been more sure of his ground, but it felt too risky given 'Miss Weisse's bitterness towards him'. A shame that the only bad review was in the "Westminster", which has recently been supportive of Tovey; fears that he will be suspected of having 'got at' the press. Will write Cleg a letter expressing normal congratulations. Blames no-one 'least of all, people whose capacity for overcoming a grudge has been crushed out of them by a life of uphill work & self-sacrifice.'
