Question 4 of 4
4. Question
Mr Williams thought that it was not very well done, probably work of amateur artist, and he could not understand why Mr Britnell thought it was worth twenty pounds. He turned it over and saw that there was piece of paper on back with part of name on it. All he could read were ends of two lines of writing. first said, ‘—ngly Hall’; second, ‘—ssex’.
Mr Williams thought that it would be interesting to see if he could find name of house in one of his guidebooks before sending picture back on Monday morning. Meanwhile, he put picture on table, lit lamp because it was now getting dark, and made tea.
