| Scope and Content |
Sent from Hotel Majestic, Athens. Informing Herbert that he and Hilda had arrived back in Athens from their honeymoon in the Peloponnese, and were setting off to Salonika [Thessaloníki] in 2 days (there was a slight risk of Dengue fever but they weren’t too worried because there was an international fair on and so it should be taken care of, or they would be “in good hands” if they did get it). Also telling Herbert that a letter from him with enclosures from [Arthur] Evans and SC [Roberts] had not arrived but he had written to Evans and SC [Roberts]; that John had letters from SC [Roberts] to Herbert and from Nikolaos Saradakis (Pachyammos [Pacheía Ámmos], Crete) wishing them good luck [with the wedding]; and that he had bumped his head badly in the car on the way back to Athens from Xylokastro [Xilókastron]. Additionally asking Herbert to give John a catalogue when SC [Roberts] had finished with it. |
