1 item

Chilswell, Nr Oxford. - Writes on behalf of his mother after the death of his father to thank Trevelyan and his wife for their letters of sympathy. Until quite recently, they expected his father to have some years' enjoyment of life still, but he seems to have wanted the end to come 'quickly and peacefull, as it did'. His father was very grateful to Trevelyan for the close attention he paid to his later poetic 'experiments'.
