Stuk 16 - Letter from R. C. Trevelyan to Caroline Trevelyan

1 item

Trinity, Cambridge [on college notepaper]:- Hopes his mother finds everything all right at Welcombe and is enjoying herself. Aaks how Bathgate and Fairweather are. Supposes 'they will be shooting the home woods about now'. Is very glad she is going to stay with the Verralls; he will dine there on the night she is staying with them.

Is afraid he 'made a sort of promise to go to Oxford on the 13th', since [Nugent] Hicks said he could arrange rooms in Balliol. Is going to Harrow to play football next Saturday, so could come home to see her after that; she might not be in town by then. Is 'playing Rugby football now', though not 'much more than one game a week'; is 'still able to work quite well' and thinks he is 'making progress'. Will see George on Saturday [at Harrow] and 'will report on him'. Had 'a very interesting letter from C[harles]'; he seems in 'good spirits'. Hopes his father is 'well and cheerful about politics': things seem to be 'going remarkable well' as far as Robert can tell.
