TitleCopy letter from Robert William Frederick Harrison, to Horace Hart
Date7 June 1907
DescriptionHarrison despatched for express delivery the proof of the address to Sir Joseph Hooker, with a couple of minor alterations marked. The only objection to printing on paper was with regard to the white colour, so they hope that Hart will be able to find paper which is an approximation of vellum in colour. The Officers did not want a leather case, so Harrison suggests a cylindrical case covered in cloth to protect the address in transit.

He hopes it will be ready for Wednesday evening, ready for sealing on Thursday.
