Meigs continued to use drawing paper printed with the Mellor & Meigs name and address after Mellor's death in 1940 and Meigs retirement to work alone at his Radnor home. The information "Made, traced & checked by A.I.M." (Arthur I. Meigs) added by Meigs at the time the drawing was made, is a more correct reflection of the creator's identification.

No sure identification with a project listed in the Meigs property account book can be made from the information on the drawings. However, these drawings may be for the "New wash room, pressing room" project.
