Scope and content
Welcombe, Stratford on Avon. - Thanks for Robert's letters; especially interested to hear about Robert's friend [Rabindranath] Tagore. Amused to receive from Bowes a volume of Aeschines Socraticus [Aeschines of Sphettus], containing some dialogues the [Oxford] "Classical Dictionary" says are 'not sanguine"; it reminds him of the young American lady at Rome who thought he was writing a life of Caroline Fox and that John Morley, who came to visit them at the hotel, was Sam Morley. Caroline was glad to have the letter from Elizabeth. Will pay the 'usual 6 guineas on the 1st January', then Robert should take steps to make himself a 'country member' [of the National Liberal Club, see 12/274?]
