We spoke of my rooms, which I said I should be more than willing to let to him, though he must, of course, first see whether he liked them, and as he was to be in town for a few days, I asked him and his secretary to Buckingham Palace Road. They came. Hardy seemed pleased with the place and said it would suit him admirably if he should find it possible to live in London for a few months. But of that he was by no means sure.
