Wednesday evg.

Dearest Alys

We leave here tomorrow, and our address until further plans will be New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel, Langdale, Ambleside. — I have looked up the night journey to Kirkby Lonsdale. The following are the alternatives:

Oxford G.W.    dp. 9.50 p.m. (down platform)
Rugby G.C.      arr. 11.13
 “    L & N.W  dp 2.2 a.m.
Low Gill     arr. 7.42
          dep 7.48 [No danger of missing, as it is a
                guaranteed connection]
K.L.         arr. 8.20
Or
Oxford G.W.   dp. 9.22 [up platform]
Paddington    arr. 10.50
Euston      dp 12 midnight

Thence as before.

The second journey is better, of course, if thee is in London anyhow. In any case, it would be more comfortable, though more expensive.

Please don’t forget to bring my cheque book. All well here.

Thine aff
Bertie.
