Notes, topics or text

"... Thought it would be best to come to a fixed agreement about money — so much a year — on condition of her not behaving like a pest." [Fragment of letter only; letter no. is not on letter.]

The remainder of this fragment has been transcribed as document .053189, record 119385. The transcription contains the words "July /17" and "Ludlow", but they were written in Ottoline's hand.

BR spent the night of 30 July at the Feathers in Ludlow. On 31 July he was at The Avenue, nicknamed "Boismaison", in Ashford Carbonell. "I have left the Feathers and moved into a farm about 3 miles from Ludlow — it is delicious country. I have been sleeping 10 hours every night, and have grown full of vigour. I have thought very little. I am coming home Friday...." He came home on Friday, 17 August, which would indicate that this was written in August, after Friday, 10 August.
