Wholesale Dealer, to Tradesman in the Country.

London, October 4th, 187—

Dear Sir,

We were sorry to find, on receipt of yours of the—inst., that you had occasion again to find fault with the goods lately furnished. Some parcels forwarded to you were done so by inadvertence. We should be sorry to lose your custom, and also grieved to hear you had suffered any pecuniary loss. We are perfectly willing to agree to such a reduction in price as you, in your integrity, think fairly just.

We remain,

Sir,

Yours obediently,

A. O——.
