"It is now Friday, the 11th. I receive two letters: one is from Swindon, and the other from the Strand. Mr Walsh writes as follows :— ‘My dear Sir, I am now authorized [2] in writing by Mr. Hampden¹ to settle the matter in dispute between you and Mr. Coulcher³, as umpire. Will you therefore forward me to Little Comberton, Pershore, your report together with your diagrams or copies of them? I shall leave there on Wednesday morning after post-time. I propose to come to some decision, either final or otherwise, next Friday at 1 p.m., when you can be present here if you like to support your opinions... Yours in haste, J. H. Walsh.’
