PETER HENDERSON'S PLANT CATALOGUE. 69 



Jamestown, N. Y., July 31st, 1871. 

 My plants have come in fine order, even at this hot season. I never before received 

 so many fine plants for so little money. 



Mrs. D. P. WESTCOTT. 



Manchester, Md., March 17, 1871. 

 The package of plants by mail is received in fine order ; also, your book, " Practical 

 Floriculture." With the book I am perfectly delighted. Had I had it before, it would 

 have saved me the lives of many valuable plants. The money expended for the book 

 will be saved ten times in my plants. 



Mrs. C. A. GEIGEE. 



Evanston, 111., February 22, 1871. 

 My plants arrived yesterday, in excellent order. I have had great pleasure in 

 unpacking and repotting them, and thank you for your liberal additions to my order. 



MARY E. BROWN. 



Saint Paul, Minn., October 19, 1871. 

 The Roses sent me last Spring here done splendidly from my two dozen bushes. I 

 have had no cessation of Roses. There has been no time but what some were in bloom. 



H. E. MANN. 



Hamilton, Canada, April 4, 1871. 

 My plants duly arrived in excellent condition. My order was not only correctly 

 filled, but the additional plants sent were, many of them, valuable as those I purchased 

 If anything I can say can add to your good name, it will be cheerfully said. 



GEO. PAPPS.. 



South Egremont, Mass, May 24, 1871. 

 The basket of plants sent me has been received -in perfect order. It is difficult to 

 understand how such a quantity could be packed in such a small space, each plant 

 coming out with hardly a leaf bruised. 



H. S. GOODALL, 

 Agricultural Editor of Berkshire Courier. 



Chicago, Illinois, January 18, 1871. 

 I have just returned, and find that the plants I ordered of you on 5th instant are 

 received, and all in apple-pie order. My gardener, who has heretofore grumbled at 

 every plant coming from the east, consents to say they are all first-rate plants ; this 

 you may take as a high compliment, for he is a chronic fault-finder. 



LEMUEL MATHEWS. 



Marshall, Mo., March 29, 1871. 

 I really don't know which affords me the most pleasure, the receipt of the plants, 

 to supply those lost, or in acknowledging the receipt of the same. It is not profitable 

 policy in the majority of florists heading their circulars with the one-sided paragraph, 

 " all goods at purchaser's risk," and your deviation from that rule may account in one 

 way for the extent of your patronage. 



H. H. SHEPPHERD. 



Lockport, N. Y., May 21, 1871. 

 I have received the Roses which I ordered, and now trouble you with a letter of 

 thanks for the generous way in which you so much more than filled the order. The 

 Roses were in splendid condition, and such fine plants has not before been sent to this 

 part of the country.
