Description:
|
The letter relates to financial issues resulting from the death of Mrs Holman, including her own wishes and discussions with Mr Holman. Frederick Hamilton refused to talk to Mr Holman on finance without his first acknowledging receiving '?4000 in part of the portion I proposed to give my daughter'. He paid him ?2111 further, the 'balance of ?6000 her portion which depended upon my verbal agreement' as he would never sign a contract with him. This figure represents the full figure that he can expect and Frederick notes that his conduct was so unexpected to Mr Holman that he was surprised but he still expected a further settlement. Frederick refused and Mr Holman asked if he could write to him and again Frederick refused stating that he can communicate all he needs to him at this meeting. Dated at Bath.
