Correspondence from David C Horsley to Brian Patterson (Coroners Unit, Ministry of Justice) re 'Deaths At Gosport War Memorial Hospital' acknowledging previous correspondence (dated 15 June 2007)

Refers to: 'I can confirm that all of the ten people mentioned in my letter of 15 June 2007 died at Gosport War Memorial Hospital which is within the administrative district of the Portsmouth and South East Hampshire Coroner's District. Of those ten, only three have been buried in the District (Sheila Gregory, Elsie Devine and Elsie Lavender), the other seven have been cremated. I interpret this as "destroyed by fire" as stipulated in Section 15 of the Coroners Act 1988'.
