Pen Rose, Berkhamsted. - The Prime Minister has asked George to 'go to Cambridge [as Regius Professor of History]' and he has accepted; the 'K[ing]'s pleasure has yet to be taken' so this is still a secret. Has been to Cambridge and talked to the 'principal history dons there with satisfactory results' about what he can do, and need not do, there. [His book, "History Under] Queen Anne" will move more slowly, but she will move'. Expects they will move there in January; sketches out his movements for the next month or so; will have the 'fun of writing an Inaugural Lecture up in the North'. Discusses financial affairs, and the amount Bob can expect to receive from him [from the Hallington estate].
