Unidad documental simple 394 - Letter from Sir George Trevelyan to R. C. Trevelyan

Welcombe, Stratford on Avon. - Glad Robert had so good a time in the Netherlands; Caroline had a 'very full' letter from Elizabeth today with news of herself and Julian, and the 'whole plan' seems to have been very successful. Mrs Stinchcombe [the Welcombe housekeeper] has had a visit from a nephew, whose father is the manager of a 'boot-business at Northampton'; Sir George sends an enclosure with information about his achievements; his aunt had not realised how well he was doing until his fellowship at [St]. John's. Sir George 'never saw a more modest, good looking, impressive young fellow'. His own health is declining, and he is 'less and less fit for work or for general company', but can expect nothing else. They hope to go north in June; will let Robert know nearer the time whether they will be well enough for a visit before then.
