Item 220 - Letter from R. C. Trevelyan to Caroline Trevelyan

The Shiffolds. - Is afraid he won't be able to stop at Wallington on his way up [to Scotland]: his friend [James?] Strachey is only staying about two weeks at Aviemore, so if he came to Wallington with Bessie on Wednesday it would 'curtail' his time with Strachey 'so much that it would as to be hardly worth' going at all. But Robert will come to Wallington on his way back in October; is 'much looking forward to seeing' them all at Wallington, as well as C[harles] and M[olly].

The arrangements for the Annual [of New Poetry] are now 'practically made'; he hopes to sign the contract in a week or two, which would mean the book would be published before Christmas. Thinks it 'quite likely to have a reasonably good sale'; they will not lose anything in any case, as 'Constables bear the cost'.

Bessie and Julian are well.
