June 29 Tuesday – At 23 Tedworth Square in London, Sam wrote to Douglas Garth, either owner or property manager of the family’s rental flat. An extension beyond July 1 had evidently been requested and granted by Garth:

Please find cheque for £5.15.6 for the extra weeks’ house-rent. We are very much obliged for the privilege of the extension. When the man comes about the decorations we shall see that he is not obstructed [MTP]. Note: the family would need more than an extra week, but found lodging in a hotel until their departure for Switzerland on July 13.
