Brompton
From the three weeks I told you in my last of my having
spent in this neighbourhood you are to deduct three days that I
spent in London in the middle of the first week.
I have got from my Uncle £10 on the score of my having
advanced you that sum. It is true t not an advance quite
so much as that but I am a good part of it perhaps almost the whole when I have paid all
your debts.
From an incident which I have not
time to give you an account of
Douglas saw your two last letters.
But he made such remarks on
them as satisfy me that he takes
your part. One may be a
sensible man says he as your
brother certainly is, without being
able to know a Sea monster
at first sight.
If you should have an opportunity, Quere whether it would
not be better to go out again by way of proving that it was
not from timidity that you came away — On the other side
you must consider what Q.S.P. would say to it.
My Uncle does not much approve your going out without
Q.S.P.'s knowledge. I broke open the letter to write this.
