Letter to Saint Andrew Matches base text
Language: English
Dear St. Andrew, The whisky arrived in due course from over the water; last week one bottle of it was extracted from the wood and inserted into me, on the installment plan, with this result: that I believe it to be the best, smoothest whisky now on the planet. Thanks, oh, thanks: I have discarded Peruna. Hoping that you three are well and happy and will be coming back before the winter sets in. I am, Sincerely yours, Mark ...the best, smoothest whisky.... Thanks!
