<p>had arranged for a motor to drive us
<lb/> out which was very nice. I have a 
<lb/> good deal of that objectionable small
<lb/>etc, but I feel sure that it is just the 
<lb/>mucous, which has been there so long
<lb/>coming away, which I think is quite 
<lb/>natural &amp; satisfactory .&amp; the nostril is
<lb/>nearly quite clear now, I had a really 
<lb/>comfortable sleep last night. As to J.V
<lb/>the <gap/>, May thinks she might
<lb/><gap/><unclear>mifs</unclear> B.G's <add>brother</add> approach M<hi rend="superscript">rs</hi> Balfry
<lb/>&amp; ask if he could give a helping hand.
<lb/><gap/> is no good doing anything till we know
<lb/>his views for certain &amp; I feel doubtful
<lb/>whether it can be done or would be satis&#x2014;
<lb/>factory <gap/> as M<hi rend="superscript">rs</hi> B.G only
<lb/>knows him as a tennis acquaintance
<lb/>&amp; I think he would not carry much
<lb/>weight &amp; it might be hard for him to 
<lb/>ask about it. I wonder whether you 
<lb/>have heard from J. or <gap/> on the subject.
<lb/>I am sure Lloyd George would be the person
<lb/>to effect this thing &amp; even if J. went out for a 
<lb/>few meeting &amp; could  <unclear>be back</unclear> then, but I
<lb/>suppose Ponders End couldn't wait. We are going 
<lb/>by an early (goods) train today to get 
<lb/>out earlier which will be much <unclear>easier.</unclear>
<lb/>Aunt S. comes here today. I left the 
<lb/><gap/> with <unclear>Mips</unclear> Young. She liked
<lb/>the little shirt but doubted they
<lb/>each be ready to find so much <unclear>but</unclear>
<lb/>She is to see what can be done.
<lb/>I hope to see cousin E. tomorrow
<lb/>now I must get up It is a lovely
<lb/>clear morning &amp; yesterday we were very 
<lb/>lucky as it was fine &amp; even smashing
<lb/>in Dublin &amp; rained all day near
<lb/>here .May's going away coat &amp; shirt
<lb/>I think is charming though very plain
<lb/>dark blue trimmed with wide black
<lb/>braid &amp; little lines of rose colour
<lb/>in collar &amp; cuffs. I think the wedd.
<lb/><gap/>will be  very pretty too, though I
<lb/>am not quite sure that this shade of
<lb/>blue is quite <del>idear</del> ideal. I do hope
<lb/>Ron cam all right &amp; is a comfort
<lb/>(5.30pm) <hi rend="underline">Train returning from Dublin</hi>
<lb/>I am on my way back after rather </p>
