Notes, topics or text

This postcard is preprinted with the address, 41 Grosvenor Road, Westminster Embankment, which is the home of the Webbs. The card is unsigned, but the handwriting matches B. Webb's. The writer stayed after Alys left and expects to see her Tuesday and "B" [Bertrand] on Wednesday. The postmark date is clarified by the fact that the Russells did not take Little Buckland until late July 1902 (see S. Turcon, "Nomads", BRS Bulletin, no. 148 [fall 2013]: 32-3).

The card was inserted between pp. 98-9 of Thomas Carlyle's Critical and Miscellaneous Essays, vol. 3 (Russell's Library, no. 703).
