Correspondence to Agnes Fry, 1933-1935

 Series
Reference Code: GBR/0012/MS Add.9738/81-82
Scope and Contents From the Fonds:

The letters catalogued are an autograph collection, gathered (at least in part) by Sir Edward Frys daughter Agnes. Although individually many of them are of limited historical value, being notes of thanks to Fry and his family for congratulations or donations, and social invitations and replies, the letters as a group do throw some light on Frys career: his relations with other judges, his work as an arbitrator, and his zoological interests.

Dates: 1933-1935
