Transcript
Jägerstrasse 13½ | Bayreuth | Bavaria
August 17th 1911
Thank you so much for your letter, it has just reached me here, after drifting about Europe.
We are just at the end of our time here, for which I am not really sorry, we leave tomorrow and, all being well arrive in England on Saturday {1}. I shall be in a position then to sympathise with your condition all during this month, as I am obliged to spend Sunday in London. Incidentally, I shall probably be starved and possibly mixed up in nots† in spite of Winston’s warning to peacably disposed citizens.
However what I really wanted to say was, if you have not gone to Canada and if it fits in with your plans better will you come to A. earlier in the week, Wednesday {2}?
On Monday I go to Dublin for 3 or four days to stay with the Aberdeens {3} perhaps you would send me a line there.
I am sorry you think my qualities (what ever they may be) of such a feeble and mutable character that one week of music could disfigure and distort them. {4}
Physically I am much reduced by this grilling week of music, but morally I am afraid there is no change.
