Re. Miss England II.

Dear Mr.Cowen,

I understand there was a very good photograph in the Daily Mail Manchester edition on Saturday, of the upturned boat, showing very clearly the damage to the step on the boat and that the negative has been sent from Manchester to the Daily Mail Office, London.

I should be glad if you would obtain three actual photographic reproductions of this picture and let me have them by return. We want all the evidence we can for the assistance of the Coroner, to explain how the accident happened.

Yours faithfully,
