Item 106 - James David Forbes to William Whewell

4 pp

Tunbridge Wells - Thanks WW and Cordelia Whewell for the offer of their house at Lowestoft. They have left Clifton for a change of air: 'there is a doubt whether sea air will agree with me' - at least along the south coasts, JDF thinks it might be different on the East. They had originally thought Lowestoft too distant before they received their letter, and had determined on Tunbridge Wells and a trial of the air at Folkestone: 'perhaps a few hours will decide the effect which sea air is likely to have upon me'. They will then send a letter to Cordelia Whewell's agent as to whether they want to stay at Lowestoft.
