Stuk 292 - Letter from Sir George Trevelyan to R. C. Trevelyan

1 item

Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Thanks Robert for writing so promptly [about his military service tribunal?]; good to 'measure the relief in Elizabeth's mind by [their] own feeling'. Asks Robert to tell Elizabeth he has had a touching letter from Madame Claes; good to think that Caroline's 'pains to comfort them in their first dire trouble' were taken for such good people. Is sure Julian will be 'happy and good' at such a school [Dunhurst, prep school for Bedales]. Amusing to read in the "Manchester Guardian' about the 'odd sort of hot water' that Welldon has got himself out to 'in his blundering, good-natured way'. A separate sheet has a postscript with a long quotation in Greek from the comic poet Apollodorus about the pleasure of entering a friend's house unbidden.
