Scope and content
[on headed notepaper for 40 Ennismore Gardens, S.W.]:- Thanks his mother for her letter. Had his 'swimming pass' yesterday; thinks everyone but a few boys passed. Hopes 'the [Irish Home?] Bill'. Was top in the questions this week, not for all the fortnight's marks. Went for a walk with Charlie this afternoon. The weather is 'rather hot'. Edward Lyttelton preached in Chapel today about public schools; Robert thinks he is 'an Eton person'.
Asks his mother to tell Booa [Mary Prestwich] the number of the new books, and that 'there is the fig. 3 on the tongue'. Thinks it is 'best to give up [his] schol[arship]', as they 'really do not want it'. Hopes his father is well. He and Charlie are getting on all right. Played cricket yesterday and 'got on very well'.
