I hear from Lady Croft that the Butterworth Trust has sent £40.
I understand from Harvey Phillips1 that the total cost will be £48, so here is the balance from the Cheeseworth Trust.2

1. Cellist and conductor.
2. See VWL2617. It is not clear to what event this refers. The ‘Cheeseworth Trust’ was VW’s joke; he would fund the balance himself.
