Waller thanks BR for his letter but "it didn't help me towards any satisfactory solution of the business with Kemsleys...." "Apparently Wason denied saying all he said as claimed by Waller". "... I didn't argue the point. I didn't mention the letter. Faced with denials on such a scale and in such circumstances, there isn't much point in arguing."

Afterwards, Wason offered Waller £100 which was refused, as Wason said, "I dislike letting any man purchase a clearance for his conscience." Waller still likes Wason and does not bear him any grudge. Waller is working again and is glad to be rid of the whole affair and thanks BR for his generous help.
