Typescript letter, signed, from Neil Clark, Fordham, Cambridgeshire, to FH

Tells FH about how the gramophone arrived safely in Fordham; with the car loaded with petrol, luggage and 'us boys', it had 'a dream like sort of motion down the motorway and every application of the brakes was preceded by a deeply metaphysical moment'. Can't thank FH properly for all he did for his mother 'for nearly half of her life'.

Typescript letter, signed, from Neil Clark (of Bernard Thorpe & Partners, Land agents, surveyors and auctioneers) to FH

Thanks FH for his sketch ideas for the "linear building". Will try to get some particulars about prefabricated buildings such as one that FH has already seen. Has arranged a meeting with the Manager of a construction firm making 'dry' buildings with short construction times. Is not too keen on panelling of the walls and ceiling in the same material; boarding is not good for sounds-proofing and would make the inter-office walls more complicated. Will send elevations and plans as soon as he has them.
