Dear Sir,
You will probably have heard that ytour son who is second engineer on our S/S "NORTH WALES", gallantly jumped overboard to assist the second officer who had fallen overboard, and was unfortunately frowned in spite of your son'e efforts.
We brought the facts before the Royal Humane Society, and we are pleased to say they have decided to grant your son the Society's bronze medal and vellum, which will be presented to him on the vessel's return home. We feel sure that this will be a source of satisfaction to you as his father.
Yours faithfully,
[stamp] Hugh Roberts and Son.
