Scope and content
Bayreuth, bei Frau Roder, Schillerstrasse 12. - Thanks Bessie for her care of her dear 'great man' [Donald Tovey]. Bayreuth is 'very splendid and fine' with 'only a moderate amount of vulgarity'; Mr and Miss Kelly have just visited, both saying they enjoyed [Robert Trevelyan's] "Sisyphus" very much, and she agrees. Is not going to the opera much as she is 'lame and headachy'. On Sunday or Monday she is going to stay with her friend Marie Remy at Wenigerode. Hopes all are well and Ariadne ["The Bride of Dionysus"] 'swimming along'. Asks what the Oxford Professor was called. Hopes Donald saw Mrs Speyer.
