To Freeserve.co.uk at the charity ferret races in England please note that
I am obliged to serve you with the callenge that American ferrets can and
do run faster than their slower English cousins.
 
Here in the colonies the organization called Ferret Endowment for Research,
Rehabilitation, Education & Traning Society, NW has conducted races for
ferrets, both in the water and on the land and have produced the following
results:
 
                 Land course precisely 25 feet long
1st Place ferret named Benjamin owned by G. Olthoff: 3.856 mph
2nd Place              Dors owned by T. Cromwell:    2.879 mph
3rd  Place             Cuddles owned by S. Lamourex  2.86 mph
 
                Water course precisely 25 feet long
1st Place              Benjamin owned by G. Olthoff:  1.74 mph
2nd Place              Willie owned by M. Boughner:   1.65 mph
3rd Place              Meko owned by C. Parks:        1.53 mph
 
We cordially invite you in the form of an open public letter to compete for
title of the fastest ferrets in the world.  Will they be English ferrets or
American ferrets?
 
Tallyho and long live the Queen!
