The Shiffolds, Holmbury St. Mary, Dorking. - Strange that Macaulay 'did not care for [Theocritus'] Idyll XIV, which seems 'as good in its way as the fifteenth' to Robert. Looks forward to going through Macaulay's notes on Theocritus when he is at Wallington. Is about to walk to Abinger to see Forster; Dickinson, who was with Robert and Forster at Chattarpur twelve years ago; also 'a young man who is now the Maharajah's secretary [J. R. Ackerley], home on holiday'. So they will have to 'send the Maharajah a round-robin'.
Julian is home, looking well and 'fortunately not noticeably taller than last holidays'. They started reading Hamlet together this morning. Sends love to his mother.

Note
Letter is dated 6 Jul 1924, but letters from Forster referring to Robert's visit to meet J. R. Ackerley 3/48, 3/126 are dated 28 and 31 July; it is likely that Robert either made a mistake over the month, or used an old sheet of notepaper.
