Scope and content
If WW sends RJ the necessary papers he 'will see about the Great Western board - I have some hopes of getting the interest - I will also see that the money is at once reinvested'. Dealing with 'these trust matters there is great need of technical regularity. I shall reinvest the monies in the joint names of the Trustees. They should then give you a power of atty [attorney] to receive the Dividends'. However this 'should have been done with the £15000 which as far as I can see Mr J. Marshall has dealt with in his own name alone - not in that of the Trustees and if he were to die tomorrow it might be difficult to pick your £15000 out of his assets - Good merchants are not always good men of business in such matters'. Where is WW's marriage settlement?
