Item 221 - Letter from R. C. Trevelyan to Caroline Trevelyan

c/o Mrs Wilson, Myers Farm, Silverdale, near Carnforth. - Was very glad to hear from Bessie that his mother is better and 'getting up again'; her weather will 'already have changed for the better' if it is the same as here. Mr Bottomley is 'fairly well', though has to stay in bed for many days. Robert 'got to work properly yesterday', since 'the first days were too stormy and horrid'. Bessie says she may go to Edinburgh on Monday to see the Toveys; much relieved to hear that [Donald] 'seems to be really better', as he has been 'getting very anxious about his health'.

Much enjoyed his trip to Wallington, and finding his father so well; also his mother except for the last few days. Will write to his father soon. Very sorry to hear about 'the Sycamore bough on the West Lawn coming down'. Hears Julian is well, and hopes George has now recovered.
