“ Last Autumn you sent, for my account, an assortment of 
Fruit Trees to Thurigen (Germany). I have just returned from 
there, and consider it a pleasant duty to inform you that, in spite 
of the long transport and the abnormally severe Winter, 'none of 
the trees have suffered. In fact, all of them are in splendid con- 
dition, the majority bearing fruit.'’
