Description:
‘My dearest wife,
... Donnach mated very quickly with Choo when I brought them together last night. She & he seem none the worse this morning, and it may be an interesting mating although I dislike the inbreeding. Yet there seemed no other chance. Ling of course is very doleful. Sigrid & I took both dogs out for a run after breakfast. Then Egon arrived on his cycle & I took a look with them at the Stables. They are really very convenient & have been good stables at some time. There would be room for any number of dogs! I think it will turn on what Routh[?] might be inclined to do. There is no sink or water in the upper rooms which are not bad rooms for size & more cheerful than you might anticipate. Then Egon & Sigrid went & photographed on the Heath...
I don’t think I have any further news than that Professor Moore of Yale, who was here some years ago, has come again to work for some months in the Laboratory. I am just going out to buy another dog license, and post letters & shall then take the dogs for a run. I hope Helga has gone on well & that Letty is now aiding you to pass the time. Don’t forget the Carlyle French Revolution for Helga as soon as she has done the Romola – I think it would be good for her [recovery from measles] now with occasional [Arabian] Nights stories mixed in aloud.
Ever your affectionate,
K.P.’
