Dear Sir,

As you know Eid is approaching which is the time when my turnover is likely to considerably increase. As my stocks are extremely low and I am unable to get long term credits from wholesalers, I find myself in a great difficulty and consequently approach you with a view to obtaining a small overdraft. I may add that credit is withheld from me merely because I am comparatively a new-comer in the business. I will however, make do with an advance of Rs.10,000/- and drawings would be spread over a period of the month ending by the 15th of December. I should undertake to place my account in credit not later than 31stJanuary, next. I hope you would allow me this advance merely against my personal surety; in that case I would very much allow you to inspect my books of account to satisfy yor with the promptitude with which my payments are normally made.

Thanking you.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir,

What is it that drags you out from your cosy cottage into the dangers of an adventurous life?

Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir,

We are in receipt for your letter for overdraft. We are sorry to say that ordinary your request cannot be accepted.

We hasten to point out that these precautions are general practice of our Bank and have nothing to do with the personal signifinance of the borrower.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir,

“The little road says, Go:

But I must go away.”

I understand that the Guarantors are fully known to you.

Dear Sirs,

We would be glad to receive from you detailed particulars of your rubber beltings which we require for supplying to the police department. We expect our requirements throughout the year will be uniformly heavy. Therefore we think it is hardly necessary to ask you to keep your quotations competitively suitable. We will require, mostly, black leather belting with nickled brass hook and a few letters embossed on it. You can quote your prices with and without your charges for the embossing of letters. But in any case the material must be of the first quality. We look forward to an early reply so that we may proceed further in the matter.

Yours faithfully,
