Scope and content

The "Half Moon", Little St. Mary's Lane, Cambridge. - When he gets back the negatives [presumably of his portrait photographs of Goldsworthy Lowes Dickinson, one of which was used in E.M. Forster's biography of Dickinson (1934)] from Munich, he will send them to Elizabeth to do with as she likes. Wishes he were in Felday [the old name for Holmbury St. Mary]: has 'glamorous memories' of a visit almost forty years ago, and returned last summer to find it not changed as unpleasantly as he had feared. An annotation by 'E.T.' [Elizabeth Trevelyan] asks for the card to be returned some time, and advises preparation for a visit from Porter; another annotation [unsigned but perhaps by Forster] records that Porter is meant to be 'wonderful at organising rather risqué round games'.
