Miss Jerusha Abbott,
Lock Willow Farm,
Willowcreek, Mass.
Dear Madam:-
We regret your novel, "The Tragedy
of love," is not suitable for publication. The
enclosed work shows a sense of humor, but little of
life. We suggest you devote more of your time to
your lessons until you know more about the world.
Very truly yours
TimothyPerkins
