DescriptionTo McIlwraith McEacharn & Company, London, from robert e. Thomson, Belfast. 23 June 1909. Ink on paper. Copy of typewritten letter begins 'Re SS KAROOLA I beg to acknowledge receipt of your two favours of the 21st and 22nd June..' and concludes with the postscript '1st class smoke room. The writer thinks the settee at each side of the after end door should have had wood arms and it seems very unfinished without them and certainly no support when the ship is rolling'.
