Sri Aurobindo — Roy, Dilip Kumar

December 21, 1935

I am keeping the estimate and Meghen’s letter for further examination. I should like to ask certain questions.

(1) When were the last repairs done, how many years ago. You say the man charged 2000? For such a sum repairs should last for ten years at least.

(2) What is the annual amount to which the rent of the house comes.

(3) As to Meghen’s proposal of buying the materials, it is a good one if he or the buyer is well acquainted with building materials, their quality, the state of the market, etc. Will that condition be satisfied in his scheme?

O.K. for the play!
