Scope and content
High Buildings, Haslemere. - Thanks Trevelyan for his letter about [Pearsall Smith's book] "Trivia"; Trevelyan is the only person of his generation he knows of who is seriously occupied with literature, so is glad he likes it. Quotes some of Trevelyan's poetry. Asks if he is still thinking about finding a house 'among these hills which the Muses love'; if so Shulbred Priory is to let for 100 pounds a year, it is 'a romantic old place'; there is also Moses Hill near Marley Common, says Trevelyan could 'act the part of Moses splendidly and... might see the back view of Jehovah'. Invites Trevelyan and his wife to stay if they would like to look at either house; the Berensons will probably be here for a week or two.
