Scope and content
'You are no doubt as weary of this correspondence as I am & no good purpose can be served by prolonging it.
I consider I have a grievance & nothing you have said is sufficient to convince me that I am wrong. But when there is no remedy the only thing to do with a grievance is to forget it & I shall endeavour to dismiss the matter from my mind. This will be rendered easier by the fact that in the past your Firm has, on several occasions, treated me with great courtesy and consideration.’
