Item description from seller

One page, 8vo, two tiny closed tears, sl. dulled, mainly good condition. "I am trying to arrange a subscription for the Times and find that my newsagent cannot supply this unless an extra copy is allocated to him. I find it is essential for me to have the Times to keep sufficiently informed on what is going on. You have already been very helpful in arranging for a copy to be sent out to the British group, of which I was then in charge, at Santa Fe, New Mexico, and I would be very grateful for anything tou can do to accelerate the supply of a copy to me." He concludes with information about his newsagent. See Image.
