But I dare not hope for so much.

It strikes me, however, that among your Australian friends may be someone who wishes to make a settlement in the Old Country, and would care to fix the spot in one of the most historic regions in England, full of romance and legend, and with a never-ending vista of historical interest--an estate which, though small, is in perfect condition and with illimitable possibilities of development, and many doubtful--or unsettled--rights which have existed before the time of the Romans or even Celts, who were the original possessors.

In addition, the house has been kept up to the _dernier cri_.

Immediate possession can be arranged.

My lawyers can provide you, or whoever you may suggest, with all business and historical details.
