The Shiffolds, Holmbury, St. Mary, Dorking. - Bessie was 'very pleased' with his father's letter [11/184], and 'gratified' that he finds her 'little present a success'; she asks Robert to return George's letter [about Henry Jackson's funeral], which they 'both read with great interest'. Robert adds a cutting from the M[anchester] Guardian'. Had not seen [Jackson] for some years, but 'of all my elders his personal presence would be the most impossible to forget. It is perhaps by his voice that I most vividly remember him', which 'more even than his eyes and gestures... for me at least, expressed what was finest and most loveable in his nature'.
The hot weather continues; it is 'well over 70 degrees [F] in the shade, even here on Leith Hill'.
