Dear Fred Pauline

To say that I am sorry to hear of your leaving your present position in London to return to BC but [illegible] my feeling – I am very very sorry indeed – I know partly of the reasons for the change but of one thing I am certain + that is that you are leaving a hard task for the next man to follow up if he is to continue

[2]

To maintain the high degree of efficiency readily attained in the Agent General Office here in caring for the interests of Western Canada as a whole – and the Dominion.  I must thank you form the bottom of my heart for your encouragement + ever ready help in the efforts I have made + am making in London as a financial missionary for BC.  I shall try to see for next week but have been unwell lately again.  I hope Mrs Pauline is

[3]

Well + all your family including your good + genial self. Perhaps for will be glad to lay down the reins of the office + take an easier time I don’t know but it is an honourable post + honourably + well have for filled it + many times have I heard that said of you for here. With every good + kind wish to you + yours + may God Bless you in your retirement.

I am your sincere old friend W Wallace Grinie
