I think this letter is from 28th Jan 1926 to cousin Esther (Miss Hackworth), 5 Gordon Tce. Thornaby on Tees is from Robert Young (author of the book on Timothy Hackworth) at 29, Chapel Park road, St. Leonards by the Sea. It concerns an article on Hackworth in The Locomotive. http://www.abebooks.co.uk/LOCOMOTIVE-MAGAZINE-RAILWAY-CARRIAGE-WAGON-REVIEW/1083058446/bd

An unposted envelope with a note by Harry Parsons and containing a watercolour painting of Mrs Timothy Hackworth (Jane Hackworth née Golightly) with a note written on the back of the watercolour.
Harry Parson’s note reads –
