A receipt from Lloyds Bank Limited, 16 St. James's Street, London, S.W.1 to Hon. Mrs. D.G. Hare to inform her that her account has been credited with £300 from the National Providential Bank, Bradford Row. 1 item, printed material with handwritten inserts.

A black & white photograph inscribed on verso in ink with "Malay Head, Dora Gordine, Town Hall, Singapore" There are also pencil annotations which seem to be calculations for including the photograph in a publication, and a request to the return the photograph to Hon. R. Hare, Dorich House, Kingston Vale, SW15. The Malay Head was sculpted from bronze by Dora Gordine in 1930-31, being exhibited at the Women's International Arts Club, Suffolk Street Galleries, London, in 1934, at the Royal Academy in May 1938 and at the Royal Glasgow institute in 1938 and again in 2006. It is in the Collections of the Former Parliament House, Singapore.

The material mainly consists of handwritten translations of Buddhist texts by Gogerly and others, handwritten Pali-English dictionaries, and later correspondence concerning their publication.

This "A Pali Dictionary" is of Pali words/phrases with their English meanings. The handwritten dictionary is written on the left-hand page with occasional additional notes on the right-hand page. It is contained within a red marbled hardbound notebook, 20.5 x 16 cm, of which the front board is detached. On its inner cover has been attached a letter from Donald Ferguson, who it seems donated this dictionary to the Royal Asiatic Society. He bought the volume at a sale of books of Reverend David de Silva, Wesleyan minister, on 29 June 1878. Ferguson surmises that this is the third of four volumes originally written by Gogerly.

The manuscript consists of different handwritten verses from the 235-275th jātakas of the Theravāda Jātaka canon (around 547 jātakas in total). Handwritten by Gogerly in the Sinhalese script, before November 6, 1847 in Sri Lanka (Ceylon). The text is aligned in columns, possibly leaving space for English translation on the right page side. The notebook consists of 19 loose sheets (21 pages of text) and is incomplete, as the last sheet is missing. Moreover, most of the pages are damaged and therefore some of the verses cannot be fully seen. Slightly fragile. 24.3cmX18.6cm.
