Item 139 - Letter from R. C. Trevelyan to Caroline Trevelyan

1 doc

[On headed notepaper for Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland]: - Thanks his mother for her letter. Was 2nd this fortnight, with 195; Giffard was first with 201 and Goetz third. Does not know where Charlie came, as he has not seen him for a few days since he has 'had rather a bad cold'. Does not think from what he has heard that it is 'anything serious'; does not think Charlie did too badly with his marks. Hopes he will be first himself next fortnight. They had a 'chesnut fight in the grove today, which was great fun'. Likes 'footer very much', and goes as often as he can. Will find out about the absit and write as soon as he can. Hopes Holl 'will make a good picture of Papa'. Has not had a bad cold himself, just 'a little one in [his] head' which is better now. Asks her to tell his father that he will write soon.
