The Shiffolds, Holmbury St. Mary, Dorking. - Thanks his father for his letter. Bessie's shoulder is now recovering, and she can 'use her arm fairly well'. They are going to Bedales at the weekend; Julian 'seems to be enjoying his summer term'. They have been reading Carlyle's Cromwell in the evenings, 'a serious undertaking'; it is the 'only important book of Carlyle' which he has never read before. Julian will 'soon be old enough to read The French Revolution; when Robert was about fifteen or sixteen, he 'used to read it over and over again, especially the last books'.
Hopes Booa [Mary Prestwich] is 'keeping fairly well'; she wrote him 'a very nice letter, and quite a long one', last week. The weather is quite chilly; today is 'dark and threatening' though there has not been any rain yet. Will perhaps manage to get to Winchester from Bedales on Monday, where [the Balliol Players] are doing the last performance of his Aeschylus translation [The Curse of the House of Atrueus, using Robert's translation of the Oresteia]. Thinks they are acting in in Old Sarum today.
