Dear Miss Trease

My wife and I join in tendering to you and your sisters, our heartfelt sympathy in the loss you have all sustained in the death of your dear father. I always found him a straightforward colleague, who had made many friends amongst his customers, and was held in high estimation by them and I feel sure they will all feel great regret when they hear of his death.

At the same time as he has suffered so much pain it is a release we may be thankful for as I presume there was no means of alleviating it.

Again tendering to you our deepest sympathy,

? Trease
Yours sincerely,

A C & C Kellett
