Malcolm stayed the first night in a small hotel. The next morning, after breakfast, he walked round the town. In the quietest part of the town, Malcolm found a large, old house. The garden in front of the house was very untidy and the house looked empty. There was a shop not very far from the house. Malcolm went into the shop and asked about the old house.
"Does anyone live in that old house down the street?" Malcolm asked the man in the shop.
"The house is empty," replied the man. "No one has lived there for many years. Go to the lawyer in the High Street. He knows about the house. He'll be able to help you.'
Malcolm walked back to the High Street. The lawyer's office was near the hotel Malcolm went into the office and met the lawyer.
