294. Unfavorable Answer to the Above.
S——, March 27, 19—.
Dear Mrs. Silverton:—
To my extreme regret, I cannot send the card you request as my ball list is filled up to overflowing; indeed, I have been obliged to leave out many of my own acquaintances who ought, really, to have been included.
Should I have any refusals at the last moment, I will let you know, but fear there is very little chance of it.
Believe me,
Very truly yours,
Gabrielle Forsyth Deane.
