Stuk 4 - Letter from Pau Casals to Elizabeth Trevelyan

1 item

Villa Colette, Route de Ria, Prades. - Very good to hear from her; he often thinks of her, and regrets not seeing her any more; time passes so quickly. Glad to hear the Trevelyans are both still active; he too keeps going, 'mon barometre est mon violoncelle', though he is not free from cares. Thanks her for the good news about the Röntgen family (her sister Abrahamina was the second wife of Julius Röntgen]. She should not worry that he is in material need: he leads a very simple life, and that is enough. Has had a letter from Adrienne Fachiri, to which he has not replied; asks Elizabeth to pass on his gratitude and best wishes to her for Adrienne's mother and aunt, who are so dear to him.
