CHAPTER 1
96/108

I will give you in detail, as my father would like, MY opinion on it--Emma's slightly differs.

Position:--about 1/4 of a mile from the small village of Down in Kent--16 miles from St.Paul's--8 1/2 miles from station (with many trains) which station is only 10 from London.

This is bad, as the drive from [i.e.on account of] the hills is long.

I calculate we are two hours going from London Bridge.

Village about forty houses with old walnut trees in the middle where stands an old flint church and the lanes meet.
