Mr Rosie maid: "That is a pity. but if there are other properiles which might interest Mr Reld, I have about 80 houses to offer in Edinburgh or Lett.
"Of course, if he took over tho 23 houses in Beaumont-placo, he would not inherit the court nunmons I have just received. But, as I stated in my offer to lm, he would be liable for maintaining the houses.
"The gross rent is £200, and i after deducing rates and other charges there is left, perhaps,

"It costs £40-£60 to paint the stairs, and you can't look at In plumber but it costs y £1. And there are fireplaces, doors, und windows to repair."
Mr Rosie offered to give tho houses to Edinburgh Corporation for nothing, but the city refused, He then suggested that, as houses were old and unecono-
