Sunday, 18 Oct. 1908.

Dear Mr. Stebbing,

Many thanks for the card for Mr. Phillpotts lecture. I could come to it of course if I were to be at Tunbridge Wells tomorrow but I am motoring up with some people from this place to London and we shall not arrive there until late.

I hope the partridge turned out all alright. They were shot by my nephew at his place in Cambridgeshire - Five Mile Bottom- famed for its birds, With kindest regards to you both.

Yours sincerely,

J.W.Cross.
