LOGAN

(John William, 1845-1925, M.P.)
LS to W.E. Barker,
headed N[ational] F[lying] C[lub] Meeting, saying he will vote in accordance with your wishes on Saturday... I am glad that you agree that La Roche should be the race point... it is a great pity that more consideration is not paid to the honour of winning... and less to the amount of money... I have always felt that the races organised by the populous centres in the North... will always mitigate against very large entries for the National and agrees that sectioning pure and simple is open... to the great objection of making the race no longer a National one, 2 sides 8vo, East Langton Grange, Market Harborough, 21st October
