  • License no. 8-6747 2^ & HM- <£- ~>~ -v ^g - May 10th, 1920. Horace Sephart, Esq., Bryson City, 10. CAROLINA. U.S.A. Dear Sir, We must apologize for being so dilatory in answering your kind enquiry of April 10th regarding Hudson Bay Blankets. The reason for the delay has been that they are very scarce here and shipments from the Old Country very slow in coming. At present we can only quote you on two colors, khaki and gray, four point, weighing about twelve pounds, and the price is #35.00 per pair, JF.O.B. Toronto. We regret we are unable to guarantee this price but should you favor us with an order while our present stock lasts, the prices will be the same. From advice, we are afraid that future shipments will cost more. I Assuring you that any orders you may favor us with will have our prompt and careful attention, we are, Yours truly, MICHIE & CO. LTD. ^^H> yy^Ajdt/ CHSM/IC Director.
