Sir,
SALTCOATS FLOWER SHOW
I see a small mistake in your Saturday’s impression regarding Saltcoats Flower Show. It is stated that Henry Ward, Stirling, took the first prize for the floral ornament, which is not correct.
I hold the ticket for the first prize as awarded by the judges.
I am &c
J. DUNCAN, Holm Garden, Ardrossan.
