Thanks for letter. Boy born on 12 May. Intends to go to Keswick for a few weeks. [This is written as part of the letter from G. B. Airy to JH, dated 1834-6-20.]
Writes to announce the birth of daughter Amelia, and to assure RA that both JH's wife, Margaret, and new daughter are doing well.
Reports significant improvement in Margaret's [JH's wife] health, after a long period of illness.
Making arrangements to send two of JH's sons to Greenwich, so that G. B. Airy can take them to Woolwich [Arsenal] to watch mortar practice.
Passes on recent reports of good news that daughter Caroline is improving, and that JH's wife, Margaret, survived the journey well. [Margaret went to Dublin to be with Caroline when she became very ill at the birth of her daughter Kathleen.]
Sends congratulations on the Airy's daughter Hilda's engagement to Edward J. Routh; also thanks for the congratulations sent to JH's son William James on his engagement to Emma Hardcastle.
