Dear Madam
If you discontinue the payment of the annual premium on the life policy, it will drop altogether & no sum whatever will be received if Mrs. Yonge were to die. If you decide on this course, the best plan will be to wait until the latter part of next October for the surrender of the policy to the office. They will pay you about £100 for it. If on the other hand you keep it going, & Mrs Yonge dies in your life time you would receive the £1000- if she survives you the policy would form part of your property & you could dispose of it as you please by your will or a codicil & if you wished to befriend Mrs Yonge you might leave the policy to her & she could then keep it up if she could afford it for her children’s benefits or surrender it to the office for what it was worth at the time.

The fire insurance may be paid to me as before. There is £1. 19 now due for which kindly send cheque. If you will kindly let me know your decision about the policy I will arrange matters accordingly

I am yours faithy
Chas Wooldridge

Miss Yonge

If you would like to see me I could go down & call on you.
