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

his last after about only an hours, I think the funeral will be on Friday but am not sure. I do not know what the usual formalities are, on these occassions nor can I tell at this date, whether my trustee will come to the funeral I don't even know if my

brother will come all the way from Scotland but if you can manage to attend I should like it as you know all about our exceedingly muddled money matters.

Trusting you one all very well

I remain Yrs Sincerely Charlotte Bray

Dear Mr. Vaisey,

The funeral will be on Thursday & will leave here about 2-15 When I wrote to you through Sissie I could not collect my thoughts. Funerals are miserable things and in our particular case these would be no

public with reading as every thing is so small & simple. so do as you like about coming. I have no doubt that on Friday when everthing is over & everyone gone that it will be wise to commence seeing to my money matters and then I shall be glad of your advise.

Tho' this has been an event expected for a long time. I had lately begun & hope for the very best so the termination of his life is after all sudden - yrs very truly Charlotte Bray

Dear Mr Vaisey Your letter of today makes me think that you would not really mind coming on Thursday - so I shd like it - and no doubt the following Tuesday will be quite early enough for other business - Please be here by

on Thursday Yrs in haste Charlotte Bray
