Mar 31st 1916 Dear Mr Oliver Yours of 29th recd. this
morning 31st in answer
to mine of 22nd. I am
sorry to say that Mr.
Wynne is not yet out of
his room, & the doctor
says will have to be
very careful for some
time to come. This makes it im-
possible for us to under
take to be out of this
by May 2nd & various
other circumstances
2
have arisen, we have
decided us to give up
the idea of letting
for the present. We are sorry if
this decision incon-
veniences you - not
hearing from you
for so long we quite
thought the matter
ended. I write by return to
give you, the earliest
notice. Yrs truly Alice K. Wynne
Letter from Alice Katherine Wynne (1833-1928) to a Mr Oliver regarding the letting
of a room. The letter states that, due to a lack of correspondence from Mr Oliver,
the 'idea' of letting a room has been abandoned. Alice Katherine Wynne was born to
Reverend John George Wynne and Emily Goold. She was married to Albert Augustus Wynne
and was the mother of five children, among them Charles Wyndham Wynne. Charles served
as a captain in the Royal Garrison Artillery in the First World War. He was killed
in action in June 1917.
