Notes and topics
BR asks Rupert to bring a picture to Paddington. (The year is conjectured but may be ascertainable from the time of BR's trip to the Trevelyans at Leith Hill, for which he made arrangements to arrive on 18 or 19 May 1949.) The exact date is conjectured.

Dear Rupert
May I ask a real kindness of you? Conrad gave me a huge picture as a birthday present, and I don’t want to drag it down to Leith Hill and back. Would you very much mind bringing it with you to Paddington, after which I can again take charge of it.
Yrs ever
BR
