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.
