Respecting our last consignment for the year 1917, which 
sailed from Liverpool on the 16th December, consisting of over 
1,700 birds — Canaries and British. I have just received the 
following letter from that well-known expert and fancier — 
Mr, H. J. Fulljames : 
Dear Mr. Hamlyn, 
Sorry you were out yesterday when I called at your 
establishment as I was passing through the Boulevard 
St. George's. At the same time I was fully repaid for my 
chance visit, for I had the opportunity of seeing the large 
consignment of Canaries and British Birds which I understood 
from Mrs. Hamlyn were leaving in the afternoon of the same 
day. 
It was very pleasing to_note that these birds were packed 
with the utmost consideration for their welfare during their 
voyage, and the travelling cages in such clean condition, and 
the arrangements for feed and water so satisfactory. 
It would appear quite certain that the only trouble the 
birds need fear on their voyage to New York is the interference 
of the U-boats, which have put a premature end to the existence 
of consignments of the same nature. Let us hope they will get 
through this menace and prove a pleasure to their American 
purchasers. 
With kind regards.
