The Letters Outward were the counterpart to the Minutes of the Committee in the administrative system of the Company, and in any study of the early years of the Company they must take their place in direct sequence to the Minutes, carrying into effect the decisions at which the Committee arrived and filling in a good deal of the detail which the formal brevity of the Minutes inevitably excluded.

Condition:

Some small spots to covers. corners gently bumped else very good to fine.
