Wainwright, the treasurer of St. Thomas' Hospital, in full: "Mr. Bonham Carter told me that you were kind enough to wish to call on me. I shall rejoice to make the acquaintance of a gentleman who has done & is doing so much for the Hospital & Nursing cause which I have so deeply at heart. Will you allow me to write to you, as just now I am very much pressed, & ask you to make an appointment some afternoon convenient to yourself? Good speed to your meeting to day." In very good to fine condition, with a crease, and short tear, to the lower left corner.
