Mottag min vänliga helsning och var försäkrad om

Min uppriktiga vänskap,

Answer Accepting.

John Street, December 4th.

Dear Mrs. Gray:

I feel much pleasure in accepting your kind invitation for my little girls, particularly as you have named an early hour. I have hitherto refused all invitations for them, on account of the late hours of juvenile parties in the present day, which I consider very injurious to children.

With many thanks, believe me, yours very sincerely,

Maria Gibson.
