As you know, I am very sorry, but I
forgot to get Lord K. to sign a photograph
before he left; so there is no chance till
we meet again – possibly in India. I
can't make out H.E.'s intention. At one time I thought he would go into home
politics: but he told me the other day
that he loathed home politics. I fancy he will
go to India to succeed Curzon.

Take great care of my old mother.
I hope the quiet life of the Bamflat
will set her up. My love to all the
decent folk there & at Broughton & at Peebles.

Your affectionate brother
