Dear Sir,
Mr. Takahata, Manager of Messrs. Suzuki Company of London advised me today that you have been kind enough to buy several fine pictures for me, and I beg to hasten to tender you my best thanks for all troubles. I beg to mention that I deeply appreciate your kind offices for me, when you are so busy always.
I beg to ask you, availing on this opportunity how the bronze castings are going on and beg to mention that it would give me a great pleasure to hear about their progress and other news.
Thanking you for your kindness once more and with my best wishes for the meanwhile,
I am, dear Sir,
Yours faithfully,
Kojiro Matsukata
