Mansfield. - We believe this is good material for you to use and should remove any skepticism from the mind of a probable purchaser regarding price reduction. . All of us know that the Dort Company is absolutely sincere in anything they do and this particular matter is no exception to their general rule. I think we are all justified in going on the plan that the price of the Dort Car will remain substantially as it is today. However, in view of this belief we have their word that they will rebate thru to the consumer as designated in the above telegram. Yours very truly LOUIS GEYLER COMPANY. tT*- H. M. Smith, * Mgr.
