Pièce 95 - Letter from Umberto Morra di Lavriano to R. C. Trevelyan

1 item

I Tatti, Settignano, Florence. - Thanks Trevelyan very much [for his help with Morra's translation of G.M. Trevelyan's "British History in the Nineteenth Century, 1782-1901"]; will write a letter of acknowledgment to his brother. Trevelyan should send any doubtful passages in his translation of Leopardi to Morra whenever he likes. Mary [Berenson] recovering from a cold, but there has been 'music here day and night' and she has been able to enjoy it; B.B. a little troubled by restrictions imposed, particularly coal, and wondering whether he will have to return to America; it would be very hard for them to leave I Tatti abandoned. Asks one last question regarding George Trevelyan's book, about Trollope's Archdeacon Grantly. His translation will be finished by the end of February.
