My dear Gerald,
I am extremely sorry that this vexatious trouble has come upon you. I hope you will find at the Royal School of Mines all that you require, and I suppose there is no doubt that you will. They say there is no cloud without a silver lining, and we may hope that it will not be two years, as it would have been, before you sit again at the table in our Combination Room.
Your affectionate godfather
A. E. Housman.
[Direction on envelope:] Gerald Jackson Esq. | c/ R. W. P. Jackson Esq. M.D. | 97 Clifton Avenue | West Hartlepool [Redirected:] c/o Cook | Springfield
