Has taken OCM to the photographer’s, and is sending photographs to be signed.
Writes of Anthony Rich’s bequest.
Surprised and delighted by Mr Rich’s bequest as it will greatly increase his income. Intends to leave money to the Royal Society to contribute to science. Houses in London are a good investment even in times that are nervous for bankers.
