Description | Rix responds to their letter of 14 October to explain that the difficulty lies with the state of the cells at the Society of Antiquaries, which cause the light to fail soon after the engine has stopped running. He asks that once this has been rectified, if not before, that they arrange for their man to leave at 6pm each day.
Rix emphasises that there is no reason why their man cannot arrive earlier than he currently does, which is at 10am or later. He suggests that he could even arrive by 8am, but restates that they want quiet evenings. |
