Dear Sir and brother, I have written a history on my old primary school Kings Glen, here in my home town in Greenock, which is being demolished.
I have written the book as a mark of respect to the staff at Ardgowan Hospice and the McMillan Nurses who looked after my young brother James, who passed away with cancer, last year.
I was wondering if you could find a way of asking your brethren for a small donation, to help get the book published.
I am not looking for an exhorbitant amount of money just something in the region of £10.00 to £20.00, we have 44 lodges in the province if each lodge gave me something, I can get the book self published from a firm in England at a cost of £450.00 pounds.
When I get it published I will send a copy to your lodge to show that your brethren's monies went to a very worthwhile cause.
Below is the written permission I have received from our Provincial Grand Lodge and Provincial Grand Secretary.
Yours Sincerely
and fraternally
brother John A Easdale MMM MKS 624.

I can confirm that you have permission to write to
the Daughter Lodges in the Province of Ayrshire, regards seeking
sponsorship to help publish your book.
Yours faithfully and fraternally
