Scope and content
King's College, Cambridge. - 10 Pelham Place, S.W.7. - Arrangements for visiting Trevelyan at Seatoller with [Stephen] Waley; it will be great fun to see him and the Allens, including Deb. Quotes Austen's Elizabeth Bennet on a proposed visit to the Lakes; an American lady once told him that 'no-one could possibly speak such English'. Asks if he was right to tell a friend suffering from conjunctivitis that Vergil once suffered from it on a journey to Brundisium [in fact Horace, see Satire 1.4].
