C/V. 14th February, 1908.

Dear Mrs Bridge,

Re J

The lady interested in this boy has for some time been trying to send him to some more suitable institution, but without success. I should, therefore, be glad to know if you do not think it is possible for you to endeavour to place him with a farmer somewhere in Sussex, where Mr Pugh could keep an eye on him, as otherwise I am afraid there will be no alternative but to pass him on to the Guardians. If you can, kindly assist in the manner suggested, or let me know what you consider had best be done in the matter, I shall be most grateful.

Yours sincerely,
