Why all are writing in the arrangement HL?

JHLMPTRS is the arrangement.
1. J and S are not neighbors, so just assume that they are in the ends J-------S.
2. Harry is just next to the left of Larry so somewhere in between J and S we have HL.
3. There is at least one to the left of Larry. --HL.
4. Paul lives in one of the two houses in the middle. So J--P---S or J---P--S.
5. Mike lives in between Paul and Larry. So HLMP somewhere in the arrangement.
6. at least one lives to the right of Robert and Harry is not between Taud and Larry So, combining all the 6,
J---P--S
JHLMP--S
JHLMPT-S
