My dear Aunt [2] ,

            I enclose 2 letters which Mrs. Griffin [3] asked me to pass on to you regarding the Dungooley [4] & Tullyvallen [5] annuities. I have written Mrs Griffin that I agree that the matter be left with O'Connor [6] . His charges will play havoc, most probably, with the annuities but I don't see what else is to be done to keep them alive.

            Mrs. Griffin writes – "It is almost 3 years since the annuities got any money and tho' the amount is small it should not be allowed to lapse. David Gilmore [7] will not act in his father's stead. Please when you read send to Slieveroe [8] and ask Aunt Maggie [9] to forward to Bessie Browne [10] . I think we may as well allow Mr. O'Connor to do as he suggests."

            I had a letter from Cis [11] this morning. All going well. Peggy [12] now thinks that as soon as she is able to travel she will come over for a spell, before settling down in York [13] and I hope she will be able to do so.

            I suppose Archie [14] has some difficulty in getting a house in York. Houses are probably scarce there as everywhere else.

            I wonder what I will be writing you about tomorrow!

                        With love to you all

                                    Your affect nephew
