[On headed notepaper for Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland]: - Is 'so sorry' to hear about Charlie's illness, and hopes it is 'nothing serious'; did not hear anything about him being unwell till last Thursday. He himself has 'rather a bad cold in [his] chest', but Mr Bowen will 'not let [him] stop out'; supposes Bowen knows best but thinks 'it is rather cold weather for going about with a bad cough'. There is a little snow almost every day, and 'the ice on the pond nearly bore [skating] yesterday': they were allowed to go on it for 'about twenty minutes'.
Has been out running three times, and likes it very much. The cold weather has recently prevented football, and so the torpid have not yet begun; wishes they were over, since 'every one is sick of footer now'.
They had a Cicero revision yesterday, and he thinks he did well, though is 'sorry to say' he 'did not do a good Sophocles revision a fortnight ago'. Is glad the elections 'are going so well'. Almost everyone in his house is 'ill in some way'; he expects because of the cold weather. Adds a postscript to say that his cold is now better.
