Dear Sirs, Attention Mr. J.P. Whitehead. We thank you for your letter of the 19th inst, regarding delivery of the equipment to be supplied against the above order, and would say that we are to-day despatching this equipment to you, and trust that it will safely come to hand.

Meanwhile, we remain, Yours faithfully, for Sales Dept. For R.H. Boyd. Manager. | ||
