Brodsky is very sorry to hear from Mr. Griffiths about Elgar's attack of bronchitis and thinks he was very wise not to take "any risques" as Elgar's health is very precious to all who love his music. Brodsky wonders what Elgar would think of their playing of his Quartet. Brodsky's wife, Anna, who has been an invalid since 1921, when her left limbs were paralysed, asks Brodsky to play the Elgar Violin Concerto almost every evening. After Brodsky's work at the college is done and when he is not professionally engaged, he is mostly at home with Anna. The original is dated 6 Nov 1925, and it is unclear when this photocopy was made.
