The house is one of a pair and it is obvious that I would have great difficulty selling the adjoining one if the neighbours were coloured. I admit that I lave a prospective purchaser for the other house who would not mind coloured neighbours, but that sale depends on whether he can sell his own house in time ’ which is doubtful."
