Pièce 334 - Letter from Elizabeth Trevelyan to Caroline Trevelyan (incomplete)

1 doc

The Park, Prestwich, Manchester. - Thanks Caroline for her 'kind letter of sympathy' on Elizabeth's 'troublesome lumbago'; this is 'nothing at all serious, only it makes one quite helpless at the time'. Is getting better 'rapidly' now, as she has Aunt Annie's 'excellent doctor' and now knows what to do. Is 'dreadfully sorry to have upset everybody's arrangements; Aunt Annie has been wonderfully kind' in arranging for her to stay on. Wilmshurst gives her 'a good rubbing night and morning', and the housemaid is also 'most kind' and 'seemed a perfect nurse'. Has been 'up and about again' since yesterday, and finds she can do more each day.

Julian seems to have enjoyed being with Caroline [at Wallington] 'so much'; he wrote to her 'very happily' and is 'no doubt having a very gay time up at the top'. Hopes she will be able to travel on Tuesday, and then she and Julian will meet at Scarborough. Hears Molly took a 'photograph of you and Grandpapa and all [the grandchildren? Letter breaks off here].
