'Peking, China'; addressed to Trevelyan at The Shiffolds, Holmbury St. Mary, Dorking, forwarded to 8 Grosvenor Gardens, S.W. on 2 Mar 1916 - Sends a card to ask how Trevelyan is. Has just returned from a 'lengthy trip to the South and Malay Peninsula, and had to curtail [his] journey to Europe for the present'. Peking has changed little since Trevelyan left, except that 'the political outlook is now much brighter'.
