About MeThis letter of intent from Hall's Yard relates to the construction of Glen Derry on bahalf of Cook of Aberdeen in 1923. The last sentence refers to previous correspondence that Cook's would seek to obtain a propeller direct from another supplier so Halls agree that they would take that into account on the final bill.
Launched in 1924 the steamer was only retained by Cook's until 1928 when the sold the vessel.
