Dear Sir,
Many thanks for your letter of 1st inst., informing me that the boys of your class enjoyed the visit to our yard and were interested in all you were shown and especially the launch. One thing I do know you all seemed to enjoy, was the snow balling.
Again thanking you for your very nice letter.
Yours faithfully,
For JOHN LEWIS & SONS LTD.,
