' The fifth dated 12 May 89 consists of about 110 words in which he thanks Wynne-Tyson for 'The Extended Circle', refers to the Golden Wedding, 'very heartwarming with a service in the original church where I have now married the girl three times', and mentions a date for a possible reading in the future.
