From John R Denyer
To Sir F. Freeling
London
Cheque on Pitt & Co. Cirencester Bank in favour of Mr C. Jones or Bearer dated 22 Jun attached to letter placed with another letter for Witney (duly received) in my private bag which goes direct to Post Office. Finding it not received, sent clerk to the Office with letter folded in similar manner. Post Mistress distinctly remembered it & pointed out where she had placed the charge for postage on the letter. She said every reason to believe she had forwarded it in Cirencester Bag but may have sent to Dursley or some other place. She would ascertain by writing.
Something wrong somewhere. A blank acceptance sent to Mr Thistlethwayte in London about 6 months since has never been heard of, and letter containing £5 note directed to Birmingham never came to hand.
