Dear Sirs,
In our letter of the 16th instant, we referred to the question of insurance on your shipment by the s.s. SIL from London to Gijon and inadvertently quoted the rate of £40 per cent, this should of course be £4 per cent.
In view of your instructions given through the medium of our London Branch, we will proceed with the insurance of this consignment, provided we are not called upon to exceed this rate of £4. Should the premium advance, however, we will communicate with you again before carrying out any insurance.
Meanwhile, we remain,
Yours faithfully,
J. Thompson
Export Department.
