28th August 1902

Dear Miss Ratcliffe,

RE W.

I am pleased to inform you that arrangements have been made for this boy to be submitted into the House Boy Brigade. 31, Elizabeth Street, Pimlico, London, S.W. on Monday Sept. 8th. Unless you hear from me to the contrary, will you kindly send him to London on the day mentioned by the train leaving Helston at 10.5 due to arrive at Paddington at 6.50 where he will be met on arrival. He should be sent clean and tidy and I shall be glad if you will see that he brings an outfit with him. Please let me hear that the foregoing will be carried out.

Yours very truly,
signature
