Meynell tells Dora that he is sending her letter to Lloyd.

He brings up one point. "The change to Dartington was made before Lloyd and I were asked to act as arbitrators, and before I was unofficially concerned in the matters in dispute between you and Bertie; so that (a) we have no standing in regard to that change and (b) we have no exact knowledge of the circumstances which the change was made—although it does appear to me that you yourself envisaged the children going to a boarding school (since you asked Bertie to inspect Bedales, for example) and at one time seem to have thought very well of Dartington."
