In addition to that you must have something else; it＇s most extraordinary your not knowing. The position＇s of value, and they＇ll probably pull it down and make a row of shops. I wonder you don＇t do that yourself; you might let the shops to great advantage."
Isabel stared; the idea of letting shops was new to her. "I hope they won＇t pull it down," she said; "I＇m extremely fond of it."
