Just as I sent off my last note came yours of 24th and last evening yours of 25th Yes, I sail, if all continue well, on the Brittannic at 7 a.m. 8th July and I suppose I shall reach L'pool about 15th or 16th at latest. I will certainly use the note to Tennyson for I want much to see him and to be able to tell you about him on my return. The "Birthday" piece is to be in August "Lip." it could not possibly have gone in July—I do not think it will be crowded out—guess they know it is a good thing. Yes, Wallace sent me a fac-simile of your 1st June letter and wonderfully well it is done. I shall certianly see the Bolton fellows and will read your message to them without fail. You must do your best, dear Walt, to cheer up and keep up until I come back with all the English news and greetings for you. I guess I shall be back before the end of Aug. I shall be anxious to see you again
Best love R M Bucke
