[Note added 2012 by Michael Purcell, the
handwriting is quite clear on this document, the occupation of Luke
Walsh as "Caroline Hatter" has not being recorded elsewhere in the
PPP, it appears from this statement that a "Caroline Hat" could be
worn by a man and possibly a uniform-wearing man (of course Laurence
could have bought it for the woman in his life?, I have consulted some
archivists on this but it remains a mystery ~ any ideas anyone ?]
