My dearest wee Mother

This is winter fairly this morning. It is a cold thaw & snowing hard. If the weather permits I will walk to Elsfield in the afternoon. We are all very well. Yesterday I lunched with Hodder-Williams & Doran, my American publisher. H-W is longing to see Nan's new book. He says he doesn't see why the "Setons" should ever stop selling. Susie & I dined in Oxford

last night & went to a meeting at Barnet House, which Mansbridge addressed. I had to make a speech. We got home about 10. I am going to the Oxford Caledonian Club dinner next Monday.

You seem to be having it very stormy in Scotland. I had a letter yesterday from Kelman in New York. [ST: Dr Kelman Presbyterian minister]

I do hope you are all well

Much love, wee body
