Scope and content
1 Stratton St., Piccadilly. - Thanks for forwarding Monographs; Lord Houghton merely mentioned sending a note when they met at a concert given here by the Baroness last Friday. Froude showed her a copy of Monographs lent to him by Carlyle. Nervousness about impending visit by the Shah, who is said to scatter his food around. The Baroness and Mrs Brown are at a slave trade meeting. Enjoyed Ristori in Maria Stuart but she looks too old and stout for the role. Asks Miss Milnes to forward her book to Pound in July. Other guests here. Might travel in September, 'if Cook's projected tour takes in more of India than his first trip'; must attend autumn manoeuvres on Dartmoor.
