Both Sylvester's letter and the copy of the letter by Starmer to which it is replying are in good condition, on lightly-aged paper, each with punch holes to one margin. Starmer, who at the time of writiing was proprietor of a large group of newspapers, had begun his career on the 'Northern Echo'; he had for many years been a Liberal member of parliament, standing down in 1931 due to ill health.

Otherwise, they might be on the sands or taken into Scarborough for the day.' Sylvester's letter: 1p., 4to. 17 lines.

He thinks it would be best for him to telephone 'to Miss Andrews'. He apologises for the short notice: 'it will not give you an opportunity of being there personally, which I am sure Mr. Lloyd George would have liked.'.…
