Further to my savingram 1167 of 18th October.

I have now heard from Sloss that Wyndham Law

has accepted offer of £1,000. He wishes to withdraw

two of the pictures mentioned in the letter enclosed

with my savingram under reference. Sloss will tell

have no objection to the purchase not including these
