Dear Sir,

Further to my interview with you on the 4th. inst., I have given the matter careful thought, but regret that I am not prepared to take a post outside London at the salary offered, viz. £4. per week, and therefore would ask you not to consider my name amongst the applicants.

I beg to thank the firm for the courteous way in which I was received, and for their kindness in allowing me to be conducted round the works afterwards.

Very truly yours,

H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} Mansion.
