Unidad documental simple 300 - Letter from R. C. Trevelyan to Caroline Trevelyan

Casa Boccaccio, Settignano, Florence [on headed notepaper for I Tatti]. - Will start on Monday, and reach London on Wednesday. Bessie will also come home that week; she 'seems to have had a very enjoyable time in Holland, and seen a lot of people'. Will go to Edinburgh that weekend, as '[Donald] Tovey is doing a scene from his opera [The Bride of Dionysus, libretto by Robert] at one of his concerts'. Had a 'very pleasant glimpse of George and Janet last week'; they have now gone to Vicenza. Mary Caroline [Trevelyan] comes to the de Filippis' today; hopes to see her before he leaves.

The weather has been 'very cold and wet' recently, but at least it is 'really Spring-like' today, just before he leaves. The 'lizards and butterflies are beginning to come out in the garden'. Julian 'seems very well and happy'; there is German measles at Bedales, but he has had it already so is unlikely to catch it. Had a 'very good review' of his Aeschylus [his translation of the Oresteia] in the TImes [Literary] Supplement. Has done 'a fair amount of work here, in spite of the weather'. Sends love to his father.
