On headed notepaper for Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland:- Arrived 'yesterday week and found Bob at the station'. They have been 'getting on well together', and Bob is happy as far as Belfield can tell. He is doing four hours work a day, 'has settled down to it all right & works quite steadily'. After a trial of a week of the hours Lady Trevelyan suggested, they have now made a slight alteration, since if Bob 'worked an hour after lunch & was to be in by 5 o'c[lock] for tea' it cut the time for getting out in the afternoon 'so very short'. Now, Bob does two and a half hours in the morning, 'with intervals for dumbells &c', half an hour after lunch, and an hour after dinner. One of the four hours is 'history reading'.
They have been out to walk or fish 'every day except yesterday' when Bob played in a cricket match. Wallington is 'certainly a beautiful place', and they have not had 'a very great deal of rain'; it was rather cold at first, but is 'now warm and jolly [?]', and he hopes this will last.
