School also adopt this proposal so that promising but poor children are also able to benefit from the education provided in these schools. About this institution at least I can say that its founders have been known for widening the scope of their educational institutions to enable the largest possible number of people to avail of them through scholarships and many other facilities. It has given me great pleasure to have come here today and to have seen all of you, particularly the young students. I wish this institution to make further progress and render still greater service to the nation. Dear sir, we are in receipt of your letter of 30th March, informing us of the inconvenience which has arisen form the delay in the delivery of your order for packing boxes. We are extremely sorry to bear this, and beg to offer an explanation with a view to showing you that we are not entirely responsible for the delay. We have been out of stock of the particular kind of paper we use in the manufacture of your goods, owing to a fire which occurred two months ago at our factory, where the paper is made. We anticipated a fresh supply before this, and have been expecting its arrival daily. However, we have just received a wire form the Manager of the branch informing us that they will be unable to run the machine again for at least another month, as the time taken to repair them has been longer than they estimated at the time of the fire. This of course, places us in a very awkward position as regards the execution of your order, and to avoid further delay we would suggest that you use boxes made without finest quality, a sample of which we close for your approval. Boxes made in this quality are quite as strong as the ones you are accustomed to use. If satisfactory we shall proceed with your order, and endeavor to deliver the required goods by Monday next.
