Item 2 - Letter from Sir Charles Edward Trevelyan to [Thomas Flower Ellis jr ?]

1 folded sheet.

8 Grosvenor Crescent. - Is sorry for the misunderstanding 'in a matter so interesting to us both'. Was 'fully persuaded that you had given me copies of Lord Macaulay's letters with a view to using them without any further restrictions'. Would be glad if Ellis could lunch with him to meet his son 'who regrets that he has not been in communication with you on the subject of his uncle's life'; is sure they will be able to 'settle everything in a manner satisfactory to us all, for we all are only desirous to do what is best for the reputation of Lord Macaulay, and of so good a friend of his as your Father always was'.
