Pièce 42 - Letter from R. C. Trevelyan to Caroline Trevelyan

Thanks his mother for her letter, and sends love to all. Is 'so sorry to hear of Stewart's death'. 'Bowine has got the plague [chickenpox?], the others have recovered' and Robert is back in his old bedroom. They did not go to church today as it rained. Asks his mother if she knows where they will go for the 'next hol[iday]s'. Is now reading an 'awfully fine book by Henty' called In Freedom's Cause, about Wallace and Bruce; has finished the other book. Is 'getting on very well'; has a lock on his desk now. Hopes Georgie is better.
