TELEPHONE. NATL. No. 6451 ROYAL. Messrs Mitchells, Johnston & Co. Writers, 160 West George Street. Dr Sirs Glasgow University. Hyndland Teind. We have yours of the 16th inst. and beg to refer you to our letters of the 6th March 1909 and 17 April 1909, and our correspondence with Messrs Hill & Hoggan annexed, in which we ask to know what slump sum your clients are prepared to take for the redemption of above, and your reply to same on the 19th April 1909. We should now be glad to hear from you further on this matter. We have no desire whatever to try to get out of our obligations. We are only entitled to pay our proportion of these tends and other proprietors should do the same. To our mind it is not reasonable that we should be asked to pay the whole of this, and until same has been bought up for a slump sum, or otherwise allocated in proportion among the various proprietors, a demand for payment of the whole in fairness ought to go round, and we would suggest that you should call on some of the other proprietors to pay. Yours faithfully, Duncanson & Henderson
