My Dear Percy, I daresay you have been thinking we have been [Clark and I] somewhat dilatory in settling up the affairs of the Executorship under your late Father's Will. These, however, are matters which occupy a good deal of time and labour, and cannot well be hurried. I am bound to say that Jack Clark, who is a first rate man of business as well as one of the kindest and best of fellows, has been doing most of the work. This has been a great relief to me, as my partner has been absent since the end of June, and I have had almost too much work on hand. I have to-day the pleasure to advise that we have paid into the Union Bank of Australia, Ltd., here, the sum of L4,000. Branches to be paid as follows: To you at the Rockhampton Branch L2,000 To Charles at the Maryborough Branch L1,000. To Alfred at the Rockhampton Branch L1,000. These remittances are on account of the amounts which will be due to you each out of the Estate. In exchange for these payments you will each have to sign the forms on receipt which we have handed the Bank here, and these receipts when signed the Banks will send home to be delivered to us. You will, of course, understand why the L2,000 has been remitted to you, as against L1000 only to Charles and Alfred. We have also invested the L3,000 left to Blanche as her Trustees, and paid the L1,500 pounds left to Lucy for the purpose you no doubt understand about. Clark is now away for his month's holiday at the sea-side, and I shall be going away for mine towards the latter part of this month, and it will therefore probably be a month or two yet before we shall be able to get this matter finally closed. Fanny and her children have been spending four weeks by the seaside at Brighton which has done them all much good, and they have returned home in the best of health. Good-bye, my dear Brother, for the present, and believe me always, Yours affectionally, E.C.P. Hull.

Research Notes:
Hull Blyth boasts over 160 years experience in shipping in West Africa, having started life as a coal bunker supplier to the British fleets in the UK and further afield in the mid 19th Century.
The company was formed in a joint venture between Mr. Edmund Charles Pendleton Hull and Mr. William Matthew Blyth who established coaling depots at a variety of locations; at Las Palmas and Tenerife (Canary Islands), St. Vincent (Cape Verde Islands), Luanda (Angola), Port Said, Beirut, Colombo, São Tomé and St Lucia (British West Indies), as well as Ghana and Nigeria.
Hull Blyth was incorporated into the famous Ocean Group during the 1960's and enjoyed a long association with various Ocean Group shipping lines such as Elder Dempster, Blue Funnel etc. Previously known as "Elder Dempster Agencies" in Nigeria and "Liner Agencies and Trading" in Ghana, the company was eventually re-branded as the Hull Blyth Group, which had been the operating name in Angola for many years.
Hull Blyth developed a wide range of oil and gas support services through exposure to the industry in Angola, Nigeria and more recently in Ghana. Hull Blyth additionally has developed a specialist Liner portfolio in the last 10 years as the Liner trade into West Africa grew substantially from Asia, particularly from mainland China.
In December 2005 Ocean Group and its successor Exel Plc was acquired outright by Deutsche Post World Net, holding company of DHL. In Feb 2007, Deutsche Post, in a Management Buy Out, sold Hull Blyth to Mr. James Baldwin, who is the Group's Managing Director and its sole shareholder.
Hull Blyth operates its own offices in Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa and the UK and is a byword throughout the region for reliability, transparency and integrity. Ref: https://www.hull-blyth.com/index.php/about/history/ Screen Shot 2014-08-04 at 1.26.24 PM.jpg Image courtesy of hullblyth.com
