Devizes
27 Jany 1903.

Revd Sir

The guardians decided today that they would allow 4/- per week for the child -- and that they decided that the relatives of the child should pay the other 1/- per week. I return the papers herewith, trusting that the friends will promise to bay the amount after all the trouble you have taken

yours very [resply]
