Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Glad to hear Elizabeth is enjoying Seatoller so much; showery weather is normal for the Lakes. Has been fishing, and Sir George has been fishing; he and George are working hard every morning and the house 'seems to be a sort of literary mill for turning out books & lectures'; suitable as it is very quiet with few neighbours. Glad Elizabeth is 'becoming more of a walker and a climber'; hopes she will keep it up in Surrey. George's beard is growing; will see how it suits him in a couple of weeks; very nice having him here. Glad Elizabeth's aunt is getting out into the country and hopes she will be better soon. Almost forgot Robert's birthday and only sent him 'a shabby line'; asks when Elizabeth's birthday is. Asks to be remembered to the Croppers if Elizabeth sees them. Glad to hear of Mr [Herbert] Jones's engagement to Lily Hodgkin. Elizabeth had better tell Anne Pearce who will get things ready and give them tea. Charles is still in town.
