Dear Mr. Mitchell,
I have received from the Collector of Customs & Excise at Sheffield the enclosed form of income-tax addressed to my late father, but inasmuch as I have never seen same before I do not know what he used to do with it, and how he had arranged to settle same. In the circumstances I shall be obliged if you will kindly see what it is about, and settle same if necessary, deducting the amount of £ 8-15-0 from the next cheque which the Mitchell Main Colliery Co. Ltd will be sending to the executors of the late Mr. Lucien Worms.
I take this opportunity of wishing you and your family a happy Christmas, and with the hope that the coming New Year will bring complete success to our allied forces.
I remain, dear Mr. Mitchell,
Yours very sincerely
H. Worms
