Content and context

(26 Colville Road, Bayswater.) Thinks Pollock [who had made a suggestion for the benefit of Clifford's health] the 'truest friend in the world', but believes that to give up his College work next term would do him more harm than good. He is already 'picked up' under Andrew Clark's regimen, and will have a clear fortnight's holiday in the country from next Wednesday, followed by five weeks' easy work in warm weather. After that they [he and Lucy] will go in a Cunard boat round the Mediterranean, then stay for the same length of time in the Pyrenees. 'If it were winter and one could get away into a warm place it would be a different thing; but I shall be as strong as a horse before the next cold weather.'
