The contract, prepared by C.E. Carter, set the price at £90, with a £5 deposit and the balance payable within 14 days of receiving Commonwealth Treasury consent, which was required under wartime National Security regulations. The contract followed the 1946 Real Estate Institute conditions and included the usual clauses about title, easements, tax adjustments, and government approval. Attached is also a 1923 contract showing that the same land had previously been sold to Lena (Eleanor) F. Bell Chambers for £90 under instalment terms through agents Keogh & King, with detailed conditions about fencing, quarrying restrictions, instalments, and plan registration. The 1946 correspondence shows the administrative steps for the new sale: Godfrey Stewart & Co., solicitors for Sutherland, returned the executed contracts and requested the vendor’s signature, valuation certificate, and Form 5 for Treasury consent. They also noted a discrepancy in the spelling of Bellchambers’ Christian names on the title versus the contract and asked whether she wished them to act for her. Carter forwarded the required forms and confirmed that Mr Bellchambers had no solicitor. Shortly afterwards, both Mr and Mrs Bellchambers instructed Stewart & Co. to act for them and confirmed that their names should match the title. The final document is Carter’s account sales statement to Mrs Bellchambers, showing the £5 deposit, the purchaser’s cheque for £81 8s, Carter’s commission of £4 10s, a valuation fee of £1 1s, and a net amount of £80 17s 8d remitted to her.
