 But on smoking the samples find no difference whatever, and so am con- / vinced beyond the shadow of 8 doubt that Edgeworth alt0ays IS of the same superior quality in all its forms, and further, that my little joke in asking for and receiving something for noth- ing will be excused by you on the plea of curiosity.
 In thanking you kindly for your courtesy in sending free samples, l. hereby solemnly promise to fill any mans reasonable sized) pipe with Edgeworth tobacco of my own pur- chase, to convert him to that really good smoke, "Edgeworth.''
 Very sincerely,
