'Subsequently he decided to withhold the £50,000 wherewith to help and maintain Kn’owle House during his lifetime. She denied being in Sir John’s house when Major Arbuthnot sau ladies in the library. There was a dramatic scene when Mr Smith read Lady Sackville’s letter to a lady friend wherein she stated that he had made a fresh will “leaving everything he had dangled before my eyes for the last ten years away from us.” Lady Sackville burst into tears, and passionately denounced the production of the letter.
