Item 177 - Letter from Sir George Trevelyan to R. C. Trevelyan

Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Has been very concerned about the troubles with the nurse [Mrs Catt], for her own sake and for Elizabeth's; hope they will soon be settled. Glad that Julian is so well. Enjoyed their visit from the [Andrew?] Langs; got to like him personally, and it seems he was impressed by 'the real knowledge of books' in the family; he is 'a very curious fellow, and is the better for a little self-knowledge'. Has long thought the "Amours de Voyage" the best of Clough's works; quite agrees with Robert about "Dipsychus", and [Henry] Sidgwick's early essays; will read [Lang's] "In The Wrong Paradise" is Robert likes it. He, Caroline, Charles, and he expects now George are all at different stages in reading [James Ford?] Rhodes' history; Caroline 'was the pioneer'.
