Scranton, Pa, Sept. 1O 1899.
riers and Citizens of Scranton.
On the eve of our departure from your
splendid city we deem it a fitting tribute
to your courtesy and unbounded hospi-
tality to issue to you an expression of
our heartfelt thanks for the many kind
nesses shown us by your people. We had
been promised a royal welcome when we
should enter the gates of your city, and
how well that promise has been kept re-
mains for us to testify to.
You have certainly been very attentive
to our interests in every conceivable
manner and were we to depart from you
without an expression of our feelings we
would consider it the height of ingratl-
tude.
To say that we were surprised at your
proGressveness would never convey the
idea of what an impression your city
has made on us.
On leaving for our own Empire City
of the Empire state we earnestly hope
that the friendship gained in the Electric
city of the old keystone state will ever
grow and finally cement itself into a spr-
it of fraternity such as should exist be-
tween the two cities.
For the New York Letter Carriers Band,
James Greer, Manager.
