Dear Mrs. Salter:—
A few of our friends are coming to afternoon tea on Friday next, and we hope to have a little good music. Perhaps you may be able to look in for half an hour; if so, I should be very pleased to see you.
Believe me,
Yours sincerely,
Selma White.
342. Asking a Gentleman to Recite at an Afternoon Tea.

Dear Mr. Starling:—
I enclose a card for a tea at my house, on March 10th, and hope so much you will be able to come. I wonder whether you would recite something during the afternoon? It would be most good-natured if you allowed yourself to be persuaded to do so.
Believe me,
Sincerely yours,
Katharine Daly.
