| Description | "The cough declining in virulence with Matthew." (Two letters on one sheet.)
Laleham June 15th. 1831.
My dear Sir,
Your son has had no increase of cough; he had but three fits of coughing yesterday, without its being attended with hooping, and only one to-day. He tells me he thinks “it is very nearly well.” As the weather is too unfavorable to allow of his leaving the house, I will resign the remainder of the sheet to him. I remain
dear Sir
Yours very faithfully
Charles William Stocker
My dear Papa,
I feel my cough to be much better, and I hope that it will soon be well enough to join Kitty, and Hugh William, I am writing the plants mentioned in Virgil in a list, and afterwards drying them, to place in my book, and I am beginning to do some sums in Involution and Evolution, and I have very nearly finished Howards Exercises, Please to give my love to Miss Burgess, Aunt Bessy, Montagu, and my Sisters, and believe me to be your affect. son
Matthew Watt Boulton
