BR writes that Sarah wishes to apply for a grant to the Merioneth Education Committee, and he is trying to fill in his part of the form. The form was sent to Madams for the figures on his income, but BR is now puzzled by some of the items recorded.

"In his 'summary of charges on income' he lists a deed of covenant dated May 1st 1951 to Countess Russell for £700. I suppose this is to Peter? But she has changed her name." BR lists a few other concerns about the income information Madams has written out and asks Tylor to look over the form, "... and suggest what should be noted where, as well as explaining the above-mentioned difficulties. I am sorry that I did not send the form to you in the first place."
