Notes and topics

Re Beacon Hill School.

Davies and BR together write that in a recent interview Maw said "... something about the possibility of your moving the school elsewhere and continuing to pay the rent of £400 for Telegraph House. That appeared to us to be so impracticable that it need not be kept in view as a possibility, especially as Bertie could not assent to the children being taken to a school elsewhere."

Davies and BR also request that, should Dora decide to move the school, she ensure a reasonable amount of notice of her decision. "... If by the 24th June next or any subsequent quarter day you notified your decision to agree to the children going to Dartington six months thereafter, you could close the school and terminate your tenancy of Telegraph House at the expiration of such six months, or alternatively you could continue to carry on the school there, paying a rent reduced by such amount as would compensate the school for losing John and Kate's fees of £300 a year."

A letter from Patricia is quoted regarding Dora's dislike of her, and unwillingness to meet her.

An inventory of the furniture is suggested.
