答案：
Dear Sirs,
L/C No. 3586
The captioned L/C issued by Bank of North Italy has duly arrived. On perusal, we find some discrepancies. Please make the following amendments:
(1) “Italiano Sement Inc.” should read “Italiano Cement Inc.”
(2) The amount should be “￡25,750 (Pounds Sterling Twenty-five Thousand Seven Hundred And Fifty Only)” instead of “￡ 25,725 (Pounds Sterling Twenty-five Thousand Seven Hundred And Twenty-five Only)”.
(3) “White Poland Cement” should read “White Portland Cement”.
(4) Insert the word “long” between “per ton” in the unit price.
(5) Delete “Packing list in triplicate”.
(6) “Genoa Commodity Inspection Bureau” should be “Tianjin Commodity Inspection Bureau”.
We hope the L/C amendments will reach us as early as possible.
Yours faithfully,
