Scope and content
West Hackhurst, Abinger Hammer, Dorking [pre-printed]; sent to 'Mrs Trevelyan, The Shiffolds, near Dorking'. - Is off for the weekend; will ring when he gets back hoping to arrange a convenient time. They [he and his mother?] went to Down House yesterday and 'brooded very pleasantly amongst Darwins Wedgwoods and all that. The house is beautifully and even impressively presented'; recommends it, but perhaps she has been already. Adds postscript to say Mrs Reeves has provided him with 'two quite wearable though rather sloppy costumes [for the pageant?] '.
