Bridgehampton, N. Y., April 15th, 1908. 
Last year I sent you an order for dahlia tubers 
I was more than pleased with them. Mrs. Win- 
ters is the finest dahlia bloom grown. No up 
to date flower can surpass it. Glencoe, Glori de 
Lyon, Miss Dodd, A. F. Bishop and Mrs. Win- 
ters far surpass anything here. H. B. H.
