It might be temporarily repaired by putting on a new roof & patching floors & plastering - not touching the sleepers - as much less cost than to be thorough.

two carpenters have examined it & place the cost from $600 to $1000. The former I think as low as it can be done well.

To obtain a more correct estimate it would be best to send  a carpenter who can figure closer than I or either of the colored men I have with me.
