Gentlemen: We are anxious to receive the package of pens which according to your invoice of November 14 was sent by mail five days ago. We presume that the package was sent by registered post.

In answer to our inquiry, the post office here says that the package has not yet been received. Do you think that there has been a mistake in addressing the package? Yours very truly,

Gentlemen: We are sorry to learn that the package we sent to you by registered post on November 14 has not been received.

Promptly upon receipt of your note we sent a duplicate package. It is possible, of course that the package was incorrectly addressed, but we do not think that there is any likelihood that this is the case. We are asking the postal authorities to institute a search for the lost package, and no doubt they will be able to find it.

Meanwhile, if the original package is delivered to you, will you kindly return it to us. The cost of postage will be sent to you, or you can make an adjustment in your account when you post your cheque. Very truly yours,
