II. Sample Analysis
A payment for a consignment
Dear Sirs: Referring to your advice of October 5th, we enclose shipping documents for the consignment of 20 bales of cotton to Brooklyn Company. As required by them we have included all charges in our invoice, which amounts to $ 14,580 and enclosed our draft at 60 days for this sum. We shall be glad if, after acceptance you will discount it at the current rate and remit the net amount to our account with National Bank of New York. Thank you for your help in this matter. Yours faithfully, Alan
