About MeCorrespondence from James McBey to Marguerite McBey, dated 14 August 1934. He refers to Marguerite's second letter from Tangier, which arrived the previous night. He asked Marguerite to sign and return the "two enclosed letters" (not included in this record). He describes how the day before, he was at Barclay's Bank, and that Marguerite ought not to forget to send particular measurements. He says he is glad Marguerite is enjoying "the place" (he is possibly referring to Tangier here).
