[On headed notepaper for Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland]: - Thanks his mother for her letter. Is very sorry to hear about his grandfather's finger; hopes 'it will not last long, and that there is nothing else the matter with him'. Gained a place this fortnight and 'came out sixth'; had wanted to do better so it should make him 'work all the harder this next fortnight'. Had a history paper last week which will count towards the next placing, and 'be almost as much as a week's marks'; thinks he has done well in that and hopes it will bring him up. It has 'snowed hard today, and there is now six or seven inches of snow'; is well and 'taking cod-liver'; Charlie is well too. Hopes his father is well, and that he will 'succeed in what he is trying to do'.
