Unidad documental simple 148 - Letter from Duncan Crookes Tovey to R. C. Trevelyan

Worplesdon Rectory, Guildford. - Thanks Trevelyan for sending the photograph of Donald, as does Mrs [Mary] Tovey; does not think Lady Betty Balfour cared much for it; unlike her, thinks it very like Donald. They are 'deathly dull' and he is worried about his wife, fearing she 'grows much weaker'; would brighten life very much for her if Don would come to see her now and then, but they do not know where he is; calls him 'their Moses'. although they have 'not set up a golden calf instead of him'. Lady Betty Balfour 'astonished' him last Sunday 'by appearing at church', and came to see his wife afterwards; had thought she was in the north but G.B. [Gerald Balfour] is at Fishers Hill, busy with the Commission on Lighthouse Administration. Wants to know more about Ariadne ["The Bride of Dionysus"]; asks whether Donald is 'industrious' about it.
