Gentlemen, —I have received the Garden Frames, and I 
am finite delighted with them. They are really well got up, 
well timbered, and the sides and ends being grooved, will pre¬ 
vent that objectionable swaging so prevalent in these kind of 
boxes. I shall certainly recommend them to my brothers in tho 
t rade.— R.GILBER’LHead Gardener to the Marquis of Exeter.

now got the Little Gem Greenhouse I had from you fixed up,
