Dear Mr. Marquez

Back in May 7, 1986 we exchanged friendly messages about my National Walking Sprinkler. I mentioned that his name is "Sneaky Pete." He then was 27 years old and failing fast (that would be about 100 years old for humans).

"Sneaky" is now terminally ill. I have patched him up with bailing wire and chewing gum. But my faithful servant is "done in."

In your letter of May 7, 1986 you quoted a price for your current Model A5. This one is of heavy metal construction and will haul a garden hose 100 feet long.

Will you please quote the current price of this model as soon as possible so that I can order a new "Sneaky."

Upon hearing from you I will immediately order.

Kindest regards.
