Powers of Attorney (1904)

21 January, 1904. Joseph Collett Smith granted authority in the United States of America (refers specifically to trade mark disputes). Signed and sealed by Henry Wellcome.

4 February, 1904. Letter to Aubrey T Hill (Phoenix Mills, Dartford) concerning authority to sign cheques. Hill's reply (6 February) attached, suggests that, instead of increasing his authority limit, "would it not be better to avoid the passing of money or cheques between London and Dartford altogether by your handing the pay in cheques to a City branch of the London & County Bank to the credit of the Firm's account at Dartford. The Works wages cheques would then be signed at Dartford and drawn on the local bank." Subsequent correspondence, also attached, shows that Hill's suggestion was taken up, until Hill's authority was rescinded in favour of Dr H A D Jowett (13 October, 1906).
