LAUGHING TORSO

 

Dear Sadleir,

 

I send you a copy of Nina Hamnett's defence which does not err on the side of prolixity.

     

I confirm that we meet at Lilley's chambers, 2, King's Bench Walk, Temple, on Friday, the 18th, at 3.30. Please be a little before rather than after as I have another appointment at 4-30.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Charles S.J. Harper
