Dear Chairman,

I wish at this time to express my gratitude and appreciation for the thoughtfulness of the students at Bryant who are responsible for sending me smokes.

It is the most wonderful feeling to know that someone back home is thinking of you once in awhile.

Again I want to thank you for this token.

Sincerely,
