Scope and content
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.
