Will you come to our house to-morrow at 9 o'clock and spend the evening with us? We mean to have a game of cards and a little music. I am sorry we cannot ask you to dinner, as we are in the midst of our periodical servant trouble; but I thought perhaps you might like to come to us in this informal way.
Very truly yours,
Alva Story.
355. Inviting a Lady and Her Daughter to a Dance.
A——, August 10, 19—.
My Dear Mrs. Stanton:—
I propose giving a little dance on the 20th, and I hope you will all be able to attend. It is quite an impromptu affair, but I trust your daughters will enjoy it nevertheless. Dancing will commence at half-past nine.
Believe me,
Very sincerely yours,
Gertrude Manners.
