Re Telegraph House.

Coward, Chance tell BR that they have seen a representative of Messrs. Hamptons. "The most important information we wanted to obtain was whether Messrs Hamptons had really a client likely to make a good offer for the property, or whether their recent letter to you was written in the usual way to get instructions to place the property on their books. We are afraid that this was the case, and the most that the representative could say was that they have people enquiring from time to time, and that they have been able to sell property in the neighbourhood." Hamptons informed Coward, Chance that £10,000 for the property was too high and estimated Telegraph House's value at £7,000.

Coward, Chance address advertising Telegraph House. However, Withers would not take on that responsibility of paying for the advertisements; therefore they would have to be covered by BR.
