Typed Letter Signed to Mrs Trotter
regretting that he does “not see the least chance of being able to come up to London in time for your meeting, but I do not think it is necessary to assure you of my very keen interest in the object of it. Nobody who has travelled even up and down the line from the colony to Pretoria can fail to see the enormous amount of work that there is to be done, and of course away from the line that work is even more urgent...”, 1 side A4, Bateman’s, Burwash, 6th June
