Alderley Park, Chelford, Cheshire
Thursday 27th July 1911
My dear Mr Montagu
Are nt you glad its over, specially as after all your doubts and misgivings it has been a success {1}. Were you miserable the whole time you were speaking or was it rather fun.
I came here yesterday as I had meant to and have got 2 peaceful days with my family in front of me. You would have been very much amused if you could have heard the very uncompromising and Roman line which my father took up about Arnold. He said “I wish it to be clearly understood that Arnold is never to be asked here again” It made me rather regret not having dined with him on Wednesday after all. I stayed at Taplow instead.
I do hope nothing very wonderful and thrilling will happen when I am abroad, will you write me a graphic account if anything does?
