19 Kensington Park Road, W.11. - Delighted to receive Trevelyan's "Lucretius [on Death]"; was very struck with his translation when he read it to her, and now she can appreciate the detail; praises it at length. Would like to hear how Julian is getting on at school, and how Trevelyan and Bessie 'settle down to conditions so utterly unlike [their] own'. Hopes their Silverdale friends have returned. Was detained at Hindhead until Monday, which she was glad of on her return as she found a bomb on Saturday night had dropped nearby and broken windows. 'Monday's din was pretty considerable too'.
