BRACERS Record Detail for 116071
To access the original letter, email the Ready Division.
Davies informs BR that when he wrote to BR regarding the deed of gifts, "... I wrote to you not with the practical wisdom of the head of this firm but rather in a jocose or malicious mood in the hope at the best of scaring you out of your wits or at the worst provoking some explanation of or apology for that grotesque document."
Davies tells BR he feels the deed was "... intended to give her [Dora] and did give her, not a legal right to any chattels which you might afterwards acquire ... but an equitable right to claim that you should transfer to her by deed or by delivery any chattels subsequently acquired by you situate in the Sydney Street house while you continued to live here."
Enclosed is document .133845, record 116072.
