TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:- 
Allen's Nurseries and Seed House has been a customer of 
this bank for some time and has been engaged in the growing and 
selling of Nursery stock and Seeds for a great many years In 
this locality. 
We have found them prompt and reliable in every way and 
their dealings with us have been most satisfactory. 
It is a pleasure to recommend Allen's Nurseries and Seed 
House to anyone in need of the goods they offer for sale. We 
also consider them an excellent credit risk for such they 
are likely to ask. 
Their goods will always be found as represented and I am 
sure any business dealings with men of such experience and 
character as the Allens will be both satisfactory and pleasant. 
Yours very trul
