Scope and content
Grand Hotel Boulouris, St Raphael, Var, France. - Congratulates Trevelyan [on the birth of his son Paul]. Apologises for not writing sooner; has had a 'sprained arm & consequent rheumatism'. Is not an expert on the 'statistics of infancy', so does not know whether what Trevelyan says is good, but it sounds so. Trevelyan has now 'a still firmer anchorage in the old house', and with the new house and new baby he supposes he will not see him here for some winters to come. Glad the child is a boy, and hopes he will keep up and add to the reputation of the family name. Sends regards to Elizabeth Trevelyan.
