Dear Sirs: 
I mean’t to write when my plants got 
here, and am afraid it may have slipped 
my mind; excuse me if I am repeating. 
But things came in fine shape, and I want 
to thank you for the generous count and 
for the extra Palm.

Dear Sirs: 
Plants arrived in very good condition, in 
fact it doesn’t seem possible that they 
could be shipped so far and still be as 
fresh as they were. Thank you.
