Item 216 - Letter from Janet Trevelyan to Elizabeth Trevelyan

1 item; typed letter with autograph signature and annotations.

The Master's Lodge, Trinity College, Cambridge. - Thanks Bessie for asking about her health, but with 'this queer and slow disease' it is not easy to answer; an old friend said today that she looks and seems very well, yet she 'still cannot walk above a snail's pace', and George pushes her in a wheelchair around the house. Sorry to hear about the 'serious car accident'; glad that neither Bessie nor Bob were in it. Will keep the details of Bessie's ear specialist, though 'G.M.T. is very naughty about specialists'; she thinks they should try a 'very good man' in Cambridge first. Her sister Dorothy has just spent a fortnight at Poggio with Lina Waterfield; it was difficult financially due to the 'sudden devaluation of the pound' but she 'longed to have' some time there. She can still walk well, and not even Florence tires her too much.
