Mrs. C. B. Stephens.
Madam: In reply to your advertisement in to-day’s Courier for a governess to teach three little girls French, German and English, I hasten to inform you that I am a graduate of Vassar, Class ’91; that I have resided one year in Paris and five months in Vienna, sojourning in both capitals for the purpose of completing my knowledge of French and German.
I have been governess in the family of Mr. George Hill, but owing to the death of my dear little pupil, their only daughter, Ada, I have been thrown out of employment. In addition to my college and academy testimonials, I beg to refer to Mrs. Hill, Holly Park, Brookline, and to the Rev. Mr. Brooks, St. Matthew’s Church.
Hoping to be favored by your selection,
I am, madam, yours respectfully,
P. K. Brinkman.
Guvernant (Lärarinna).
19 Bleecker St., Boston, den 27 Juli 1893.
Fru C. B. Stephens.
