J.N.Longley Esq.,
Messrs Ferodo Ltd.,
CHAPEL-IN-LE-FRITH.

Dear Mr.Longley,

Mr. Grylls has passed on your very kind invitation to your Daughter's dance. I am extremely sorry not to be able to accept but I am on duty that week-end with the R.A.F. Reserve. With the present political position, the Territorial Forces in general are being made to take themselves seriously.

Yours sincerely,
