GENTLEMEN,-- La reply to your inquiry as to whether the Whiskey you are supplying to this Club is approved by the Monours, the best auswer I can give is that the consumption of this Whisky in the Clas has GREATLY INCREASED since it has hoon aupied by your tirant. There can be no doubt whatever about the Whiskey being MOST EXCELLENT. It is Old and Soft, and I may safely say that it is much approved by the Members. Yours obediently,

:

W. Chris Serve, Secretary. CAUTION-It has come to the knowledge of the shippers of the "CARLTON" WHISKIES, that the empty Bottle have been die honestly refilled with the poisonous trash very after sold in China under the name of Whiskey, this is therefore to caută consumers to CAREFULLY EXAMINE the Cous and CAPSULES to a they barel heen tampered with; also that the Corks, Capsuleshed Labels are branded with their Trade Mark.
