Mrs Chadwick & the house I should not
think there was much to hope for in
what you say. She was "not ready for
a decision"—wanted "a refusal"—consults
"her advisor" &c. Of course she was
polite & liked every thing. This is not a
very good sign. So I would not be
agitated. I hope, of course, you will
sell. This is the first thing in any change
of our present monotony. Do all you
can therefore to bring it about if she
really wants the place at the price— I
shall revise the price in the spring, ac-
cording to Mr. Turner's advice—& you better
not be too anxious to be turned out in
this dead of winter.

If however, she takes you up at
the offer & wants the place immediately let
her have it soon as you can conven-
iently pack up. In that case I would
come on at once & be with you in
doing so. We could store furniture in Newtown
or it could be brought on & stored here.
