Davies informs BR when they sent the cheque for school fees in October Maw wrote that the school fees were due to the trustees next on January 6, to avoid any delays.

Davies also informs BR that, "Each time that Lady Russell concurs in such payment the practice of paying the children's school fees out of the trustees account is further established, and it becomes increasingly difficult for her hereafter to object to any such payments on the principle that it is not in the interests of the children that their fund should be so utilised."

There is a further note at the foot of the letter saying, "... when are you coming to London or Dublin? It is horrible how time goes by without meeting."
