J Beasley, London, to Miss Brocksopp at Miss Walton's: I arrived in London to your brother's surprise and gratification; he is in comfortable lodgings and is quite at home in London; he is not looking at all worse nor is his cough more troublesome, yet he is not is such good spirits as when he came up; Dr Hall does not say much about him although he says that if the lungs are not ulcerated, he can prevent their being so; you are in very good hands; Dr Hall says the weather is too hot for your brother and he is to sail to Margate twice a week. 30 Jul 1831
