Whilst working in the travel agency, Geoffrey Griffiths (future bursar of the Northern School of Music) writes to Ida Carroll (future principal of the Northern School of Music), arranging a meeting in Ashton-under-Lyne where he works.
Geoffrey's family likes her, his father appreciated her last visit - it looks like they played cards - and his "dear Mama will have something nice to say about you at breakfast tomorrow, I know."
He gets excited about the offers on the railways for trips around Manchester and signs off with "every bit of me is yours."
