Scope and content

Weybridge. - Cannot visit this weekend, but would like to walk over when he is at West Hackhurst, soon after Easter. Has much to tell them: 'my toleration of the East is complete'. Was more 'outraged and bewildered' by an American poet he met recently at the Reform Club than by 'anyone East of Suez'. Predicts that 'England will hold India yet'. Has been reading Proust, whose sentences remind him 'of stair carpets'.
