With monogram HPC and motto 'Mens sana in corpore sano'. - Quotes the first line of Virgil's "Aeneid" to begin an account of a fight between his house and the 'Vannites', in which he, [Harold?] Sandilands and [Claude] Rome were involved, and the ensuing talk from Bowen who 'dwelt on his own sacrifices for the house', which George knows more of than most, and 'the bitterness of his disappointment'; George was very touched, and this is the only aspect which grieves him. Expects he will lose his monitorship.
