            <p>In reply to your letter of January 20th, I am still interested in the possibilities of obtaining a craft capable of serving me in the duties of commercial fishing.</p>
            
            <p>Trusting that you will furnish me with all necessary information regarding the leasing or lending such craft to good Canadians for the duration of this war; also is such boats fully equipped with riggin and the usual fishing equipment that is needed.</p>
            
            <p>Hoping to hear from you as soon as possible.</p>
