Mr. Harold Grant,
48 Dey Street,
New York.

Dear Sir:

May we thank you for your letter of May 5th and for the names
of those whom you were kind enough to give as references?

The information that we have received from them is
unfortunately not quite complete enough for the purposes of
our formal records. Would you care to furnish us with further
references in order that the account may be properly opened?
Or perhaps you would rather call in person.

Very truly yours,
(Handwritten) _F. Burdick_,
Credit Manager,
Hoyt & Jennings.

Gentlemen:

We write to thank you for your order of July 10th, amounting
to $320 and we are anxious to make shipment quickly.

Our records do not show that we have previously been receiving
your orders and hence unfortunately we have not the formal
information desired by our credit department so that we can
open the account that we should like to have in your name. For
we trust that this will be only the first of many purchases.

Will you favor us by filling out the form enclosed and
mailing it back as soon as convenient? The information, of
course, will be held strictly confidential.

We are preparing the order for shipment and it will be ready
to go out.

Yours truly,
(Handwritten) _B. Allen_,
Credit Manager
Gregory Supply Co.
