Item 47 - Letter from R. C. Trevelyan to Caroline Trevelyan

1 doc

Thanks his mother for her letter. Is 'very glad to hear' he has a 'new cousin' [Morgan Philips Price?], and wonders what he is like. Has 'got the money from Booth': twelve shillings and fourpence; has recorded it and his ticket in his account. Sends love to all. Hopes 'Georgie's leg is getting better', and that Sophie [Wicksteed?] is also better. Is 'getting on very well'. This morning it rained so they could not go to church. Wilson mi[nor] has 'got the Chicken Pox'; Robert has had it before and does 'not think one can have it twice'. Asks if his mother can send him 'a few crest and autographs, not the whole letter but only the signiture [sic] (anybody will do)' for 'a boy who is collecting'. 'Stamps' is written below Robert's signature.
