1943 Elizabeth Bobbett: Letter to the Registrar of Friendly Societies, 22.09.1943

Source: National Archives of Ireland (NAI), RFS/T425

Dear Sir. I have only to-day received your registered letter of 16th Sept. 1943 which was sent on from our Registered Office Dame House Dame Street Dublin, and which letter was insufficiently stamped.

I regret to learn that our Auditor has not yet sent in the Annual Return for year 1942. Your letter is the first information that I have received stating that you had not received the return for 1942. I am writing at once to the Auditor, as I understood from him several months ago that all was completed and that he was sending in the Form as usual.

Yours faithfully, Elizabeth F. Bobbett, General Secretary.
