Lacock Jan^ry. 23^d

D^r Sir

I propose that Charles ¹ shall return to you on the 4^th Feb^ry. and shall be glad to hear if that is a convenient day-

I shall be glad if you shall mention whether you have any fixed period for the summer vacation as it would be convenient to know beforehand- I think Charles would be able to make the same arrangement as your other pupils-

I believe that the 6 months will terminate in the latter part of February, & I will send a remittance of £78 as soon as it becomes due-

Charles has been more occupied with Christmas gaieties than with study and I don't think he will have prepared much which he can show you on his return. I think it would be good for his health if he were to take some riding exercise at Whorlton,² do any of your other pupils ride? and do you think it would be a good plan. I don't know whether there is any stable accomodation in the village?

I remain Yours v^y tr^y
H. F. Talbot
