Establishment, Kensington High Street, September 21, 1880."
MADAM, We are in receipt of instructions from Mr. Edward Chesterton to wait upon you for the purpose of offering for your selection a Bonnet of the latest Parisian taste, of which we have a large assortment ready for your choice; or can, if preferred, make you one to order. Our assistant will wait upon you at any time you may appoint, unless you would prefer to pay a visit to our Millinery department yourself. Mr. Chesterton informs us that as soon as you have made your selection he will hand us a cheque for the amount. We are given to understand that Mr. Chesterton proposes this transaction as a remembrance of the anniversary of what, he instructs us to say, he regards as a happy and auspicious event. We have accordingly entered it in our books in that aspect. In conveying, as we are desired to do, Mr. Chesterton's best wishes for your health and happiness for many future anniversaries, may we very respectfully join to them our own, and add that during many years to come we trust to be permitted to supply you with goods of the best description for cash, on the principle of the lowest prices consistent with excellence of quality and workmanship. We have the honour to be Madam Your most obedient Servants |
