Scope and content
Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Thanks Robert for the 'extract specimen' of an edition of Thucydides, which he returns; discusses the editions he has already, including the text by Poppo which he had at Harrow 'covered throughout' with pencil notes; some 'evidently from Dr Vaughan's lips' but most his own; some are 'really interesting, as written in the stress and agony of the Great War'. Thinks he will 'content himself with this little Clarendon Press edition'; asks Robert to tell Mary Caroline.
