The Shiffolds, Holmbury St. Mary, Dorking. - Thanks his father for his 'kindness in paying the extra £50' into his account. Found Julian 'recovering from his catarrh'; expects he will be well enough to go to school at the end of the week. Meanwhile they 'go on with Latin' together: thinks Julian has made 'good progress'.
Robert has had lumbago for the last fortnight: the 'damp weather' makes it hard to get rid of. On his way home, stopped at Liverpool and 'made final arrangements' for the printing of his Aeschylus translation [The Oresteia]; hopes the Liverpool University Press will publish it before Christmas. Looking at his shelves the 'first thing' he saw was his Loeb edition of Menander: had 'evidently quite forgotten' that his father had sent it back and is very sorry to have troubled him.
Hopes his mother is keeping well, and that there may still be 'some really fine autumn weather before winter sets in. The leaves have hardly begun to turn here yet'. Julian greatly enjoyed his visit to Wallington. Sends love to his parents.
