Summary:

Shall be glad to see Meldola on Monday afternoon. Has a friend staying so can't offer him a bed. The Varleys called but I don't know if they saw anything. The Corporation of Godalming have to sue the Gas Company humbly to "enlighten their darkness"! The Swann lamps would go out and where they did not go out gave far less light than gas lamps!.
