Re Telegraph House.

BR quotes a letter he received from Dora, which explains that Mr. Maw would have liked to meet with Davies when he got back from London. However, he was in a rush.

BR quotes Dora's letter as saying, "There seems no obstacle to your effecting the sale of the house on the understanding that possession can be given next July if not sooner. I thought you considered it unwise to sell the reversion, as the property itself would be more valuable when it was absolutely yours."

BR writes that Dora does not mention Dartington in her letter at all, and that should Dora evacuate the school for Christmas the children will need to be enrolled in another school. BR asks Davies to convey to Mr. Maw that Dora needs to hurry up with a decision regarding the children's schooling.

BR will be staying at the Russell Hotel on Sept. 21 and will be in charge of the children.
