I heartily wish them all continued health, prosperity, and happiness; and I do so in the sincere belief that I have never morally harmed any of my readers, but have added pleasure as well as moral and intellectual profit to their lives. I HEARTILY WISH THEM ALL CONTINUED HEALTH PROSPERITY AND HAPPINESS AND I DO SO IN THE SINCERE BELIEF THAT I HAVE NEVER MORALLY HARMED ANY OF MY READERS BUT HAVE ADDED PLEASURE AS WELL AS MORAL AND INTELLECTUAL PROFIT TO THEIR LIVES
 the many who have been benefited in the same way. Hoping that you may find your visit to the Old World both pleasant and profitable, and wishing you a safe return, I remain, sir, Yours truly, G. FRANK UNDERWOOD. G. F. RANK. I have received hundreds of similar letters, containing substantially the same testimony. In December of the year this letter came to me, I was confined to my hotel in England by a London fog one day; and in the first daily paper I picked up in the reading-room I was surprised to find myself "written up" in terms that made me blush; but the article pleased me because it contained the same idea my young friend had embodied in his letter. Gratefully remembering my friends of over forty years' standing, and with a hearty recognition of those of more recent years, I return to them all my most sincere thanks for their generous appreciation of the work of my lifetime, and for their continued kindness to me from the first appearance of "The Boat Club" to the present time.  BE THE ONLY ONE BUT ONE OF MANY WHO HAVE BEEN BENEFITED IN THE SAME WAY HOPING THAT YOU MAY FIND YOUR VISIT TO THE OLD WORLD BOTH PLEASANT AND PROFITABLE AND WISHING YOU A SAFE RETURN I REMAIN SIR YOURS TRULY G FRANK UNDERWOOD G FRANK I HAVE RECEIVED HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR LETTERS CONTAINING SUBSTANTIALLY THE SAME TESTIMONY IN DECEMBER OF THE YEAR THIS LETTER CAME TO ME I WAS CONFINED TO MY HOTEL IN ENGLAND BY A LONDON FOG ONE DAY AND IN THE FIRST DAILY PAPER I PICKED UP IN THE READING ROOM I WAS SURPRISED TO FIND MYSELF WRITTEN UP IN TERMS THAT MADE ME BLUSH BUT THE ARTICLE HAS PLEASED ME BECAUSE IT CONTAINED THE SAME IDEA MY YOUNG FRIEND HAD EMBODIED IN HIS LETTER GRATEFUL REMEMBERING MY FRIENDS OF OVER FORTY YEARS STANDING AND WITH A HEARTY RECOGNITION OF THOSE OF MORE RECENT YEARS I RETURNED TO THEM ALL MY MOST SINCERE THANKS FOR THEIR GENEROUS APPRECIATION OF THE WORK OF MY LIFETIME AND FOR THEIR CONTINUED KINDNESS TO ME FROM THE FIRST APPEARANCE OF THE BOAT CLUB TO THE PRESENT TIME
