Scope and content

Trin[ity] Col[lege] Cam[bridge - on college notepaper]:- Has 'written about the Temple', and expects an answer. It was 'with mixed feelings' that Robert 'saw the return of the Fogie for Huddersfield' [Sir Joseph Crosland, in a by-election: see also TRER/12/15A): remembered him well. Hopes he will 'prove a blow that will drive the boards of the Home Rule Ship closer together'.

Hopes his parents are well. Is writing 'by electric light in the Union'. The Decemviri [a debating society] 'abolished monarchy the other day' by a motion which Robert proposed; they have 'a distinct majority now for progress'. Will write at greater length to his mother in the week.
