On headed notepaper for The Park, Manchester:- Charles and Rob[er]t left on the 10 am train for London. Trevelyan 'may well be proud' of his sons, who 'are a splendid lot'; it seems to Philips that 'they cannot go wrong', and he encourages his son-in-law not to 'be too strict with them - they know what they are doing'. It is a 'great delight' to Philips in his 'old age to see such a fine crop of intelligence coming up - & real gentlemen, which after all is almost the most valuable quality'. The weather here is 'beautiful'.
