P——, July 12, 19—.

The Fireside Publishing Co.

Gentlemen:—

I deeply regret the feeling of irritation which induced me to give you notice yesterday: will you permit me to apologize for so doing, and to ask you to allow me to recall it? I venture to make this request in the hope that my long, and I may say faithful, services will plead in my favor. Trusting that this frank statement of regret will meet with a favorable answer,

I remain,
Yours obediently,
David Harlan.
