July 24th. 1912. · Messrs. E. & J. Smith, Dear Sirs,
I might say that I have been a regular smoker of your «Gleayou» Mizture for the last twelve yours,and I might also say that I cannot find any tobacco to suit me like it. In my opinion if Golf Players would amoke your famous Glasgow Mixture they would find it very soothing to the Nerves, as I em surt i dis when having to play strenuous Golf matches such as the Open Championship, etc. Yours truly.
