　　Dear Sirs,

　　We have received your letter of Credit No.AG6422 for the amount of ￡ 4600 to cover your Order No.705 for 40 metric tons of...

　　The said credit calls for shipment on or before the 30th of November.As the earliest steamer sailing for your port is the S.S.“Flying Cloud”scheduled to leave Hong Kong on or about the 3rd of December,it is,therefore,impossible for us to effect shipment at the time you named.

　　This being the case,we have to ask you to be so kind as to extend the date of shipment to the 10th of December,under cable advice to us.We understand that cable amendment is costly,but this is a matter over which we can exercise no control.

　　Cordially yours,
