Vancouver, B. C.

Dear Sir:

I was not previously advised of the sale of my brother's and my property so there is one thing I wish to be made clear.

I consider the price of $3088.00 quite fair if it is for the property only, although my brother and I have no intention of selling the property.

If this amount includes the greenhouses and the buildings, I think this price is absolutely ridiculous. I can furnish you with almost exact amount my brother and I spent in building those greenhouses so will you please let me know if the price of $3088.00 is for property only or if it includes greenhouses and other buildings.

Yours truly,

Jiro Kosaka Reg. No. 02868
