Dear Mr. Oliver, I write for my husband
who is still laid up in bed.
He is ready to let the house on
the condition you mention in your
letter previous to that of the 13 th.
He is willing to abandon the stip-
ulation of 3 months 'eviction'
provided the 'evicted' months
shall be Aug. Sept. instead of
July Aug st. &and thinks that this
can in no case to be disadvanta-
geous to you â- He sees many difficulties as to
the cow & hopes that you will
settle not to bring her. Doulu etc
About the garden he will
give the gardener orders that
you are to be supplied first
with what you require for
yr family, but after you are
fully supplied, the gardener
2
may deal with the rest according
to Mr W's orders. Mr Wynne is anxious to meet
your wishes as far as possible
but you will understand
that as it seems quite likely
that yr tenancy will only be
for two months, it wl be
unreasonable to expect the
farm & garden routine to
be upset for the short time
I do not think that you will
have any difficulties with
our gardener â- he has been in
charge during many tenancies
& our tenants have always
found him most obliging
I may mention that I enâ
quired from Dr Wylie about
the price of milk â Mr Hiver
must have been mistaken
for he says he always pays
3 d per quartâ
