My dear Gerald,
I have just had a request from the Colonial Office to tell them all your bad qualities (refusal to learn Catechism &c), so I want to know what you are up to now, and whether you have abandoned your studies in London, and are off to Africa again. At any rate I hope the malaria is put right.
I am now at the ordinary work of term.
Your affectionate godfather
A. E. Housman.
[DIrection on envelope:] Gerald Jackson Esq. | c/ Rupert Jackson Esq. M.D. | 97 Clifton Avenue | West Hartlepool [Redirected to:] 33 Courtfield Rd | S: Kensington | London S W 7
