Description:'Dear Mr Brien [sic],
...
I have known Mr. Edwards for some years as an animal supplier, and more particularly recently in connection with his present enterprise. I believe that he has the intention and ability to conduct any business he may arrange properly and in a way of which we would approve, and I would be most grateful if you would give him any help you are able to in enabling him to obtain a license for exporting monkeys from India.
We have in this encounter been severely handicapped by the unsatisfactory state of the monkey supply and feel it is high time that somebody else came into the field. My belief is that Mr. Edwards should be able to do some good work here. I may add that I am asking the Medical Research Council at Head Office to request the Indian Government through the Commonwealth Relations Office to give favourable consideration for Mr. Edward's application for a license.'
