Quint. and I had dinner at Aunty's and then I went over and sat with Marj. till about two o'clock when I left to attend a Horticultural meeting at the Canning Factory. It lasted most of the afternoon. Young Jones was there and asked me to paint his name on his new truck. Dad. has had the most exciting news yet from the English lawyers. They are sending a man out to dig up the necessary information and instructed Dad. to cable them when he would meet their man whose name is Mr. Parks. Dad. cabled that he would meet him at Port Dover. They also said that the reason they asked whether Dad was born before 1858 was that it made the difference whether he would recieve a life interest or the capital sum which was a considerable ammount. Mr. Freeman to whom they showed the letter and asked for advice regarding the cable said that a "considerable ammount" to those people meant vastly more than it did to us and predicted that it would not be less than $200,000.
