Scope and content
The Shiffolds. - He and Bessie are very glad to hear that his mother is 'really getting better now'. Hopes the weather will 'really improve for a time', which will help her to completely recover; yesterday it was very cold here, but today it is fine and much warmer. Julian is doing well; his nurse has been unwell but seems to be recovering. Bessie 'goes out with them every afternoon in the donkey-cart, which is proving very useful'.
Is glad his father has had a 'good impression of the new king' [see 12/172]. The worst Robert has heard of him is that he is a 'tariff-reformer', which would be a pity if true, but 'would not perhaps much matter if he is otherwise sensible and impartial like his father'. Wishes they could 'have the Coronation this autumn, so as to clear the way for dealing with the Lords'.
George and Janet came to the Shiffolds last Sunday for the day; unfortunately Robert could not be there, but Bessie says they seemed 'very well and cheerful'; George 'seems to have had a very successful tour in Italy'. Will write to his mother in a few days; thinks Bessie is writing today.
