can use George for an important mission, which involves:
Reminding you NOT TO FORGET to pay NOW for the

to pay 7 days after receipt.
Hold your check and the statement below together throughout his
return trip, and
Binding, by so doing, the friendly relationship which exists
between we.
Won't you please send George back promptly with your payment?
Cordially,
