Additional Description

Container Summary

Contains several TLS to HG and to solicitor Ben G. Jones of Linklaters and Paines, concerning the drawing up of a will for DJ. @ TL copy to Ben Jones from Honeyman 9/13/73, seems to sum up the situation: "Harman Grisewood and I are still spending an enormous amount of time trying to resolve the question of David Jones' will. We have quite frankly come to the conclusion that dear old David will never, repeat never, settle down to drawing up a detailed will and testament in the usual way because of the temperamental and psychological difficulties of which we are all aware."
