Scope and content
Horn Hill Court, Chalfont St. Peter. - Is the 'proud and happy possessor of No. 50 [of an edition of 350] of "Windfalls", which she finds a 'constant delight'; thinks it is a 'book that will not date' and give 'quiet enjoyment to readers not yet born'. Sends her own White Duck to pay its respects to [Trevelyan's] Swan', and asks him to forgive its 'shortcomings'. Adds a postscript saying she is sure he would like her garden; would be glad if he could some day visit; Dr G[eorge] P[eabody] gooch also lives nearby.
