Venice, sent to Milnes at 26 Pall Mall, London. - At the request of his friend Edward Valentine, he has paid the monthly allowance Milnes authorized Holme & Co to pay to the Countess Schaffgotsche since last September; annexes an account of his disbursements as Valentine says Milnes wishes to have one. Asks Milnes to pay the sum, 'together with such provision as you may think proper for similar future payments' to his account with Messrs Thomas Thompson & Co of 157 Fenchurch Street. Since it seems likely that Valentine will not continue to reside in Venice, assures Milnes that he will be pleased to render assistance 'at any time... to you or your friends.

Venice, sent to Milnes at Pall Mall, London. - With enclosure: copy of an agreement in Italian, 13 Mar. 1950, signed at a meeting of Holme & Co. creditors; the original has been sent to Valentine's brother [in law?] Thomas Thompson of 157 Fenchurch Street to obtain the remaining signatures'. The estate is placed under administration and Valentine is 'liberated from all further responsibility towards the creditors'. Hopes this information will reach London in time to prevent any steps being taken to cancel his appointment [as British representative at Venice]. Apologises for 'all the trouble' he has given Milnes.
