DERBY. Dear Robotham, Thank you for your letter of the 25th instant, to hand this morning. I am afraid I was not quite clear in my letter of the 7th. The samples I referred to the ones we were expecting from Mr. Caserta in Detroit. These eventually arrived, and I sent them on to you on the 24th instant. No doubt you have received them by now and I shall look forward to hearing your comments in due course. Yours sincerely, C.L. Breeden es. | ||
