To the Editor, Buntingford Gazette
Buntingford Fire Brigade
Sir,
From the letter appearing in your columns of the last week by "Mrs Merryweather," it is evident that others beside the Brigade are interested in the "Lady," who although of the Victorian age and born in the 60's, is yet good for a real hard day's work, provided that she has her whack of water and is provided with fairly decent lodgings.
A few pounds would improve her lodging accommodation, would secure the necessary operation being perfom upon her lungs, and would provide her with a further supply of hose.
A gentleman resident of the town has kindly forwarded a cheque for the sum of £3, and suggests that a fund be raised to improve the Engine and Equipment, further particulars of which we hope to publish shortly together with a brief history of the Engine and the work that it has accomplished.
Meanwhile donations to the fund would be thankfully received, and should be made payable to Messrs. Barclays Bank, Buntingford Branch, a/c Buntingford Fire Brigade.
Yours faithfully,
Ernest G. Thody
Captain of the Buntingford Fire Brigade.
Buntingford.
10th December, 1926.
