A Letter to a Gentleman who has been making inquiries about a Lady's Horse.
Hithrun, March 26th, 187—
Dear Marden,
Mr. Somes, of B——, has requested me to tell you that he will sell his mare for thirty-five guineas. She is aged about eight or nine; has been as you know regularly hunted for the last two or more seasons, and is a safe and beautiful hack, and goes well in harness. I need not say more than to observe that he is perfectly indifferent about selling her, though much obliged to you for recommending her. I think she is well worth fifty pounds.
Yours very truly,
J. L——t.
Regretting being unable to give an Appointment to a Situation.
