Gentlemen:

We recently had the pleasure of filling your order for our new devices.

Since you have, no doubt, installed them by this time, I am writing to make sure that you are entirely satisfied with their operation. We believe that the material furnished should provide excellent isolation for your equipment. However, if you have experienced difficulty, please write to us giving all the particulars. We are anxious to make every installation a successful one.

I will greatly appreciate a letter from you stating how this installation is operating, and if we can be of further assistance on other technology problems, please, do not hesitate to contact us.

Very truly yours,

Donald Brown

Vice President

Dear Sirs

Shoes New Style Models

We have received your letter dated November 9 reminding us of our promise to send you all the particulars, catalogues, specifications of our products.

The delay in sending the papers to you was entirely due to pressure of work in our printing works. Some publications were out of print and we have to wait.

As soon as we get a new impression of our catalogue we will send you the whole set without delay.

Now we are sending you samples of our products under separate cover. If you get interested in our new models we could discuss our further contacts in person.

Faithfully yours

J.Casey
