Dear Jack,

I was delighted to read in the Evening Paper yesterday of the decoration which has been recently awarded to you and I would hasten to congratulate you on behalf of all the Directors of Gee, Walker and Slater Ltd.

I think I am correct in saying you are the first member of the firm to receive a decoration, and we all feel justly proud.

I would like to add my own personal wishes for all the success you would wish yourself in the future.

Incidentally, I note you have recently been married and would also congratulate you on this score.

With kind regards,
Yours sincerely,
