Scope and content

12 Pembroke Gardens, Kensington, W. - Trevelyan must not pay her the last 20 pounds until the work [her German translation of "The Bride of Dionysus"] is quite finished. Would be glad to work on it together again next year. Hopes Trevelyan found improvement at Northlands [Sophie Weisse's school]; in great troubles, people should 'sink all their little home-made ones'. Expects [Donald] Tovey will be glad to start at Edinburgh. Wonders whether the Northlands pupils will return: schools not seeing girls since people are poorer because of the war. Mrs Sickert and Robert still ill in bed; both 'very plucky and... dears to look after'. Wonders whether 'this fearful struggle of the Armies can last much longer'; the Germans in particular must be reaching the limits of endurance.
