14, rue Nungesser et Coli, Paris XVIe. - Reached Europe about three weeks ago: received a letter on his arrival at Marseille from his Swedish friend Amelie Brazdova, whom Trevelyan once met, inviting him to visit her at Plascassier in Provence. Has been a week in Paris; his friends [Germanova and Kalitinsky] have grown old and Rex [the dog] is very fat, and getting blind; there is a sense of things passing away, at home, and in the streets. No great disorder as yet, but workmen with red flags singing the Internationale and driving through the town in lorries reminds him of the time when the Provisional Government had begun to weaken in Russia. Hopes he will be able to come next month to England, and asks to know Trevelyan's summer plans.
