How to Write Love Letters : LETTER V. From a Lady, in Answer to the...by Madame le Fontaine (Carleton B. Case, ed)
Return to "How to Write Love Letters" Index LETTER V. From a Lady, in Answer to the...LETTER V. From a Lady, in Answer to the Proposal of a Gentleman who had met her the previous Evening.Hempstead, July 6, 1918. Although it is the highest compliment that can be paid our sex, to receive offers calculated to ensure a lasting acquaintance, I must still complain of the precipitate character of your address to one who, till last right, was a total stranger to you. Without wishing to say anything harsh, I must confess that I do not reel any motive to entertain so hasty a proposal, and have felt bound to lay your letter before my parents, as I could not think of concealing from them any correspondence of such a description. Trusting that you will see the matter in its proper light, I remain, sir, Yours respectfully, Hortense Lamont To Mr. Fred. Peck. |
