View the Case Summary.

first to you as instructed to do some long time back. The matter is quite urgent and necessary. We are able to replace the lower portions of our wooden legs for a few pence but cannot manage to replace the bucket portion. When ordering it would be as well to have the socket portion which receives the leg made larger than usual to allow for growing &c. I had this done when replacing leg for Wm Saunders about a year ago.

Yours faithfully
J.G. Stevens
