Dear Sir: The Dahlias came through in splendid condition this time, and I want to thank you for 
your kindness in replacing the plants. My experience with other florists has not led me to expect such 
generosity, and you may be sure that hereafter you will be given my small trade, and that I will also 
do what I can to have my friends send you their orders. — Mrs. R. T. H.. Seattle. Wash., March 6, 1909. 
Dear Sfr: I received the Dahlias a few days ago. They reached here in perfect condition and are 
more than up to my expectations.— M. B. H.. St. Paul. Minn.
