Estate of Major General G.F.C. Bray - Correspondence and Records, 1883-1884

you were to come here tomorrow Thursday- bring the Will and read the deed assigning the Policy back to by husband from Colonel [Scovell?] for I never looked at it or thought of it til 3 days ago and it ought to be seen to make sure of its being correct. Give us an idea of the time you will come. Yrs sincly. Charlotte Bray

Dear Mr. Vaisey There is in the mar- rriage settlement a clause obliging all monies which should come to my husband to be settled on me. But I conclude an assurance on life which is only obtainable after his death cannot be included in that clause. He, my husband, fancied his Will

was made leaving everything to me absolutely. But I told him at the time that I did not think he had made the Insurance money sufficiently clear and as I saw the subject worried him and he kept declaring that it was "all right" I said nothing to you about it

because I did not like to put more apparent difficulties in the way. However if you are satisfied that this Insurance money is safe to come to me absolutely I don't think it is necessary to do more and he will rest satisfied with your opinion. At the same time I have a sort of idea that it would be wise if

I go by 12-34 train. On Her Majesty's Service. To hear ? I ? about this I don't understand it? e7 BA.W. Varsey Esqr (Strike out over the following) by C. F. G(B)ray He Thedhome Gran? The F(S)ordoreg? Tri(y)ng Herts
