Dear Daddy,
Thank you or your telegram and for the money which you should not now send, since this
home has been sold. There is a chance that the sale will not go through but not much. It is too
bad. Sometime we should learn to not be so slow. I expect something else will turn up during
the next six months or year. It is terribly depressing business though, because one sees no end of
the search, and then for a few days one is full of hope and plans and excitement and then it is all
lost again. The agent told me it was available last Monday morning and in the afternoon that it
have been sold for ~ 4000. It would have been a good deal of work and taken 6 or 9 months,
but still very pleasant and convenient and nice and then we would be settled.
I am trying to get a number of calculations going on our new computor. Owen Mills the
iron carbonyl derivative fellow from Manchester has been here and has been a great help.
I am also preparing my lectures which begin in a fortnight. It is a good deal of work.
Silicates. Heteropoly acids, and electron deficient compounds. Nyholm also want a lecture on
the value of powder methods.
I have I think Rheumatism in my lower back and my shoulder. I suffer from it now and
again. It is terrible. One of the major disadvantages of this country. Everyone (including the
children) has it.
love from
Peter
