Letter from H.T.A. Dashwood, 10th January 1952. Lee, Bolton and Lee, Solicitors. Thanks for returning the proof of his sermon.

Letter from Hugh Pagan, 8th July 1962. OW - written while still at school. Attempt to trace some coins missing from the school's collection possibly stolen during the war. A coin of the Mercian king Offa, considered unique by the British Museum, has turned up at a London coin-dealer's, which he claims to have had since 1935. If it can be proved that a theft (of anything) took place between 1929, when the coin catalogue was compiled, and 1935, the BM will do their utmost to retrieve the coin. Can Harold Costley White help?
