Date18 Dec 1891
DescriptionConfirmation from Rickards that no useful information was found in his father's papers regarding the Phillip's portrait. Cannot see what claim Gell's son would have on the painting, as being the "Heir Male" would not confer legal title to a picture or any other personal property
