Dear Sir
I am very sorry to hear of Clifford’s illness. I trust the trouble you are kindly taking will suc-ceed in leaving no cause for anxiety as to pecuniary affairs in consequence of what is advised for his health.
I enclose a checque for £10 and should be happy to send more if desired.
Yours truly
W Thomson
