South Woodford. H. E. November 14th, 1914 -
I am given to understand that the Admiralty are requiring Captains and Officers for Special Service, conditions unknown.
I have already put my name down on the books of the Imperial Merchant Service Guild offering my service for the
same.
I should esteem it a great favour if you would kindly use your influence at the Admiralty in
my behalf.
Thanking you in anticipation.
H H. F. Batterbee, Esq.
Jam, Fir.
Yours obediently,
Robert H. Wetherell.
Assistant Private Secretary.
