Scope and content
Paul Mary Pakenham: Death - Letter from his sister Louisa Pakenham to Vincent Grotti. Thanks him for letter dated 22 Feb. giving news of Paul Mary's illness and encloses a letter for him with instructions that it be destroyed if he has died. NB. As the enclosure mentioned has not survived and as Paul Mary died on 1 March it may be that this letter did not arrive before his death, in which case Louisa's wishes would have been carried out. Alternatively, as he was not conscious, according to Laurence Carr - 2/2/6/1, her wishes may have still been carried out, as he was unable to receive her letter.
