Scope and content
2 Hampstead Hill Gardens, N.W.3. - Gus [her husband] 'finds 'writing rather an effort', so sends thanks from both of them for Bob's 'delightful' Christmas present [this year's "From the Shiffolds"] which has led her to find out her 'long-neglected Homer' to read the Hymn again. Gus reads poetry out loud most evenings, so it is good to have this new book. Sorry that Bob's friend Robert Lynd has died, and there will be 'less occasion' for him to come to Hampstead, but hopes he will still visit them: they 'have a cook!'. Nick [their son] and his wife have separated; thinks the long parting [during the war] 'chiefly to blame' and wishes they had been 'more patient in trying to adjust themselves again; they are both 'such nice people', and 'poor little Sarah' [their daughter] is 'very fond of Nick' though she has not seen much of him; has been a 'great worry. Sends love to Bessie.
