Sutton Coldfield
11th Jany 1871-
Dear Mr. Evans,
I was truly sorry altho' not unprepared for it to see in this morning's paper the announcement of the death of the Earl of Aylesford at the age of 46 being three years my senior. What a great loss it must prove to his family and what a misfortune for the present Earl that he should have acceded to the Title and Estates so early in life.
I sincerely trust that the change may not prove prejudicial to your interests- though I fear it may cause you an infinity of trouble. If you should have the opportunity and think it would be right so to do will you convey our respectful condolences to the Countess.
I hope that Mrs. Evans with your self and family are well.
Altho' somewhat tardy pray accept my best wishes that you may all spend a happy new year and many others in succession.
Believe me
Yours very sincerely,
H.G. Addenbrooke
I.P. Evans Esqre

Messrs Watson & Baxter have sent replies to our requisitions on Title but some few are not quite satisfactory. There is however not the least doubt but that everything of any importance will be cleared up.
We were much surprised at the great length of the Abstract owing to very numerous Mortgage transactions. |  |
