I have inspected Mrs Stanfords house and furniture with the view of considering the purposes for which it might be used which would have to be considered in fixing the rental.

first year with prospects of 1800 for the secon [sic] or third years.

I would be pleased if I can be of further service to you, that you command me at any time
Truly Yours
