Scope and content

The Shiffolds. - Is sorry that his father is not recovering more quickly; must be 'tiresome for him to be in bed for so long'. Hopes that when he can get up the bad weather will be gone, and there will be a 'fine autumn. Bessie and Julian came home last night; both 'seemed very well, and all the better for their two weeks in the North'. Had 'quite a pleasant time here alone', but was still glad when they returned. The Elms family leave some time next week, when 'it comes to the point we are very sorry they are going'.

Would have liked to see more of his mother, and had brought some poems and translations from Theocritus to show her; if she likes, could send her typewritten copies of some since he has duplicates. Hopes to bring out a book of translations next year, and perhaps also a book of poems. Sends love to his father and Booa [Mary Prestwich]
