1 item

Stocks, Tring. - Apologises for not writing at once to say she and George could not come ; Bessie's letter came just as they were leaving to pay two visits, and when George is there she 'still find[s] it fearfully hard to remember anything else!'; she therefore forgot it on Sunday at the Youngs' [the family of Sir George Young, 3rd Baronet?]. On Monday they were in Bessie's neighbourhood 'on a mighty walk from Box Hill to Guildford' so Janet hoped to pay a call but there was not time and she had to telegraph; feels 'much ashamed' of herself and hopes Bessie can find someone else. They had 'a wonderful half-hour with the old man of Box Hill [George Meredith?]', and generally 'a heavenly 3 days'.
