DEAR SIR,—On arriving in London I came here at once, and checked
Farintosh’s accounts from the books of the head office. I am sorry
to say that I find a further discrepancy of seventy pounds. I am
able, however, to assure you that we have now touched bottom. The
total amount is three hundred and forty pounds, and a cheque for that
sum at your early convenience would oblige us, as we are anxious to
bring so unpleasant a business to a conclusion.—Yours truly,
