Dear Miss Wallace,1

The President2 who has been ill and will probably not be very well for some time is I believe looking forward to trying your father's chair to see if it is comfortable for him in his room for the next few months. I hope that when you call some time later in the Autumn you may find him there.

Yours very sincerely | [Arthur Robert Hinks]3 Secretary.
