Asks for the Pass Book to be sent to Mrs William Sharp as soon as the last amount is withdrawn by Duncan Flockhart and Co.
Onslow sent Duncan Flockhart a cheque for £5. 8. 7. Will respond to her letter soon.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park — Has sent enough hydrogen peroxide to the New Zealand Hospital to empty the Fund. Asks Onslow to send her the Pass Book so the account can be accredited. Will write up what the Fund accomplished. Grateful for his work and sorry the Fund is now over.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park, London — The Committee agrees he should be Sectional Hon. Treasurer and look after money received from New Zealand. Congratulates him on the success of the appeal to Dr Collins. Requests a statement on finances be periodically sent to her to be filed by Mrs Riddel.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park — Encloses three bills. There will only be around £5 left after this. Will visit Walter in Newcastle who was injured in a bombing accident.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park — Encloses two bills to be paid. Asks if he knows of H. E. Hyde who has just published a book entitled 'The Two Roads: International Government or Militarism'.
Bullers Wood, Chichester — Asks if the bills sent last week were paid. Will send two more bills shortly. The Committee wants to close the Fund as soon as possible. Admiral Riddel will pay for it to be audited.
Bullers Wood, Chichester — Encloses three bills to be paid imminently. Will reach out to the Royal Victoria at Folkestone, the British Red Cross, and Greenwich Dreadnought Hospital to offer supplies. Asks his opinion on having the accounts audited.
The Yews, East Hagbourne, Didcot, Berkshire — Requests new accounts be paid. The Fund is running low, with only around £200 remaining after these bills. Will write to hospital in Walton on Thames to offer money. Has no desire to continue the Fund after the War Charities Act becomes law.
49 Cambridge Street — Sends nine bills. Asks for the Pass Book to be returned. The Walton-on-Thames Hospital has received another donation.
49 Cambridge Street — Asks how much money the Secretary holds and the total bank balance with it added. Gives sympathies for Onslow's illness.
33 Belgrave Square — Is compiling a record of voluntary work done during the war for a book to be published by Hodder and Stoughton. Requests information on the address, officers, aims, and fundraising methods of the Anaesthetics Emergency Fund.
Onslow has been ill, delaying this response. The accounts are correct, as the £200 referred to by Mrs Collins was actually sent on July 26 and was more than estimated, totalling £429. 15. 11. The 'Secretary to the Treasury' retains a further small sum for them.
Bedford Hotel, Brighton — Is compiling a report of the Fund for the Committee. Borrowed the Pass Book from the bank to clarify the balance. The final payment from New Zealand appears to be omitted. Asks for clarification.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park — Duncan and Flockhart Co. overcharged them £1 on their bill of November 26, so has credited £1 to their account.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park — Encloses another bill to be paid before Christmas. Requests a register of paid accounts. Asks how much money remains.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park — Encloses 8 bills, amounting to nearly £200. The clerk mistakenly applied the wrong discount. Asks if he can calculate the correct amount.
The Duncan and Flockhart bill of June 11 was paid. It was receipted by them on June 21. With list of nine bills paid.
Westleton, Suffolk — Duncan and Flockhart claim the account from June 11 has not been paid. Will send list of accounts and needs clarity on which are unpaid. Accidentally sent the bill for Miss Guinness twice. Requires a fast response to not lose discount on a bill.
Is sorting out bills. Recovering tin is not as cost effective in England as in Germany, where its price has increased eightfold. Has received another £429 from New Zealand and may receive another £500 yet.
Requests Anaesthetics Emergency Fund cheques be cashed without both his and the Hon. Secretary E. A. Sharp's signatures. One is acceptable if either signatory dies.
45 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park, London — Handed the files to Lady Gwendoline. Her work will be easier than theirs, as the relationship between County Office and Districts is being restructured. Fewer representatives from the Soldiers' and Sailors' Families Association will be in the Committee, which they are unhappy about. She supports this, feeling the work should be in governmental hands. Is sorting the final finances of the Fund and requests bills be paid.
His sister Gwenny has been approached as their successor, but probably won't take the role. The cheque accidentally included a sum that was already paid. Approaching the papers about the New Zealand donation is unnecessary. Agrees funds should not be sent to Serbia, but to France, with some kept for the Dardanelles when requested by New Zealand.
49 Cambridge Street — The Holton case was passed to Mr Hawkins as it was complicated and urgent. Appears to have received the wrong amount of money. Will return if so. Considering sending a further statement of donations to papers, but doesn't think it will be printed. Mislaid Dr Collins' address. Mrs Riddel wants to send supplies to Serbia but she is against it. Asks his opinion.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park — Received the Soldiers' and Sailors' Families Association enclosures. Sent a card to Mrs Purcell about the Holtman case. Encloses a bill. The New Zealand money is useful as the Fund is depleted to £30.
Dr Collins cabled another £1040. Has thanked him and sent a cutting of the letter in the Morning Post. Wonders when their successor will be appointed.
49 Cambridge Street — Asks if he has written to the Divisions to announce his resignation. If so she must follow. The two women approached to take over their roles declined. She is willing to continue for a fortnight if needed, but Mr Hawkins and Mrs Wood have been handling the last few cases so there is nothing to do.
Apologises for not responding to letters. Agrees with informing the Record Department on the Anaesthetics Emergency Fund's activities. Encloses an letter from Dr Collins. Duncan Flockhart and Co. have receipted their bill. Would prefer 'the Maori tribe business' be left out. He is associated with the 'Ngati Huia' and 'Ngati Rakawa' iwi.
Westminster Chambers, 13 Victoria Street, London — Mrs William Sharp called at the office a few days ago. The letter on New Zealand's donations was sent for publication and appeared in several papers.
49 Cambridge Street, Hyde Park — Took the N. Z. letter to the High Commissioner's office to save time. The secretary informed her that 'several things even from the [High Commissioner] have not been printed!'
