Transcript A transcript of the document. <div style="text-align:right;">Home Office</div> <div style="text-align:right;">Whitehall S.W.1.</div> <div style="text-align:right;">7 November 1938</div> My dear Garter<br />We certainly ought to have told you years ago about the Chairman of the London County Council and my only excuse is that he was made "Right Honourable" in the middle of the Silver Jubilee celebrations and in rather an informal way. That is a poor excuse "so mea culpa" and here are the facts:-<br /><br />The King (King George V) on the recommendation of the then Home Secretary (Sir John Gilmour) conferred upon the Chairman of the London County Council and his successors in office for the time being the right to the style "The Right Honourable" [^prefixed] to his official title of "Chairman of the London County Council." You may remember that in 1935, the London County Council gave a large Evening Party--on May 31st--at which The King and Queen were to have been present and at which The King proposed to announce this honour for the Chairman, in the event however His Majesty was indisposed so The Queen went alone and the announcement was made by the Home Secretary. The communiqué on the subject appeared in the Press on June 1st, and it was gazetted of [sic] June 5th, 1935. There was no Royal Warrant or any formal document at all. <div style="text-align:center;">Yours sincerely</div> <div style="text-align:center;">H. R. Boyd<br /><br /></div> Sir Gerald Wollaston.

Since Hobart is an Australian city, King George V presumably acted on the advice of the Secretary of State for the Dominions, but the Home Office formally notified Garter of his decision.
