Scope and content

The Shiffolds, Holmbury St. Mary, Dorking. - Thanks his mother for her letters; is glad to hear that his father's hand is 'getting better without too much trouble', and that she herself is better [after shingles]. Hopes to visit before long, but his and Bessie's plans are 'not quite settled yet'. Went to London yesterday and saw 'Mr [Stanley] Unwin of Allen & Unwin', who is going to publish two of Robert's books. Robert will bear part of the costs, but Unwin is 'much more likely to push them and make them successful than Longmans, as he takes part of the risk himself, and is generally enterprising'. The first [The Foolishness of Solomon] will probably be published early in June.

Bessie and Julian are well. Robert 'lunched with Charles, and saw Molly and the twins'. All seemed 'quite well and cheerful'.
