Elrington Colliery is on the Maitland/Cessnock field of New South Wales and is a Colliery in which we have a controlling interest in association with Hebburn Limited.

During the time Mr. McKensey is in the United States I would very much like him to have the pleasure of meeting you and perhaps having the opportunity of discussing matters of mutual Interest with some of your officers. With this in view I trust that you will not mind my having taken the liberty of providing him with a letter of introduction to you. I can assure you that anything you or your officers may be able to do to add to the interest and Instruction of his visit to your country will be greatly appreciated not only by him but by me personally. Mr. McKensey’s programme in the United States has not yet been finalised but I have suggested to him that as soon as possible after his arrival there he should communicate with you and advise you re­ garding his movements. Just recently I was delighted to learn from Mr. Lewis that Mr. McAuliffe is keeping so well and active - when next you see him I should be glad if you would be good enough to remember me to him and give him my kindest regards and best wishes. I trust that you are keeping well and send you my kindest regards and best wishes.
