The Shiffolds, Holmbury St Mary. - Has just heard from Drummonds that fifty pounds has been paid into his account by his father; thanks him for his 'kindness'. Is postponing reading the prose of Interludes until he and Bessie have finished reading Boswell's Tour in the Hebrides aloud; they will then read Sir George's book together. Robert finds the verse 'as good as ever', especially Horace [at the University of Athens], always his favourite. Has compared it with the 'second edition of 1862'. Also thinks 'the parabasis of Ladies in Parliament' might be 'better than anything in Horace'; discusses this.
Bessie is well, and enjoying the fine weather; everything seems right with the house, and they now have 'about all the new furniture that was necessary'. They are looking forward to his mother's visit in autumn.
