Scope and content

The University of Rochester, College of Arts and Science, Rochester, New York, Biological Laboratories. - Was very touched by Trevelyan's letter and poem, and sent both on to Salvemini who deemed the poem 'worthy of Horace'. She and Sam send their warmest thanks. Has been in correspondence with Salvemini since sending him a note on impulse last Christmas; he has just asked if he can give a lecture at Rochester on 'peace aims' and she thinks the President should 'jump at the chance'. John wrote her a letter while staying with Joan Allen; he seemed cheerful, but rather bored. Very interested to hear about Julian, but Trevelyan's best news is that he is still writing poetry: this has inspired her to get on with her scientific paper. Gordon has written twice to ask if he can come next spring, but he may not have received her replies and much might interfere. He definitely said that he was retiring. She and Sam will befriend Quentin Keynes.
