Letter from Guy le Strange to C.A. Storey to inform Storey that due to increasing age and frailty, he has agreed with Nicholson that another trustee should act as signature of cheques.

Letter from W.L. Raynes, Clerk to the Trust, to C.A. Storey to enclose a letter from Professor Nicholson explaining the situation regarding the manuscript bought by Arberry. He also encloses a cheque for Arberry to be reimbursed. With this letter is a copy of the letter from Nicholson to Raynes, in Storey's hand, in which he asks if the Gibb Memorial Volumes for Turkey had been forwarded to the Foreign Office and whether there had been any notification of their arrival. He also writes concerning the purchase by Dr Arberry of a Persian Manuscript, "Sanglatch" from Heffer. This had come to them via Sir Denison Ross's Library but Arberry had found it to belong to the Trust. Storey believes this an honest mistake from Heffer and asks that Arberry can be reimbursed for the purchase so it can be returned to the Trust.
