To J H Smart & Sons, vessel owners

Please note that this Navigation has nothing whatsoever to do with the upkeep or administration of the T&S Canal. It has undertaken to collect the amounts promised in 1925 towards the deficit for the County Council. Your £10 contribution was on that basis. We are being pressed for this year's amount. Send any criticisms regarding how the County Council is carrying out its duties and they shall be put before the Council with your contribution. Signed by Chairman, J Margetson
