The Uplands Farm,

B—— Lake, Minn. May 29, 19—.

My Dear Miss White:—

I was a little surprised to find two letters awaiting me at the post office this morning. I am afraid our mutual friend, Miss Etheridge, has been drawing a little upon her imagination.

We are a very plain sort of people at the Uplands Farm, as she knows right well. Still, if simple living, fresh air, and perfect rest is what you require, I think we can accommodate you. B—— Lake is within walking distance, and the whole neighborhood is very beautiful. If $—— for the month's board meets your views, I think I could undertake to entertain you, with the hope of providing what you desire.

Pray give my kind regards to Miss Etheridge.

Yours very truly,
Susan Marner.
