Scope and content

Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Much enjoying their time with Elizabeth and Julian, who is very dear, 'the six year old child whom Southey says that everyone should have in the house'. Caroline is not much better; they gave up going to London some time ago and he hopes very much that she will be able to travel to Welcombe. The correspondence between [Joseph] Chamberlain and [Henry] Labouchere is 'most curious'; discusses Chamberlain's split from Gladstone. The correspondence between Lord Hartington, Balfour and others in the biography of Hartington from Balfour's premiership is also 'extraordinarily interesting' and revelatory as to 'the difficulties which preceded that utter rout of the Tory party in 1906'. It is Charles's birthday.
