Davies quotes BR in his letter to Maw, record 115513.

BR tells Davies, "I did not intend that John and Kate should necessarily leave the school before June 1934 if it moves meanwhile. If the new premises were satisfactory, I should not raise any objection to their remaining till June 1934."

BR instructs Davies that Dora may have the furniture, but he states, "... I should like her to realize that taking furnished places for short periods (which is what she forces on me by her indecision) is very expensive, and that if she wishes money from me, she must make it possible for me to have it to pay."

BR informs Davies that if Dora agrees to stay at Telegraph House until 1937 he will let her have it for £100 a year, and is willing to let Dora have until midsummer, rather than May 25, to make her decision.
