Scope and content
Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Very glad for Elizabeth's letter; has been pleasant to think that 'while Mamma was away from me, she was with you, as I know how much you are to each other'. Has finished "Kipps" [by H. G. Wells] and likes it 'exceedingly'; it is very funny, but there is also a 'curious pathos about it'; thinks it in all ways better than "[Love and] Mr Lewisham" though that is good too. Has just started "Grub Street" [by George Gissing], which Elizabeth had read aloud. Is nearly 'out of Grub Street' himself as he has almost finished writing his own book.
