5.23.1919 - 5.30.1919
Mrs. Addington,
I apologize for the postcard, but I am compelled to use them as I have no envelopes. Dear old Mrs. Hayes gave me your address and I hope you don't mind, but you are the only person in the world who I believe will be able to help me. If you reply I shall be indebted to you.
Your Friend,
Evelyn Elliott
P.S. Do you mind if I call you Mildred?
...
Miss Evelyn,
Frankly, I am appalled at your forwardness. You may call me Mrs. Addington and apologize to Mrs. Hayes for referring to her in such a way. I will be having a word with her myself. I have attached extra envelopes for you to use.
Mildred
...
My Dearest Madame Addington of Manhattan,
I would like to formally apologize from the bottom of my heart for being so careless with my crass words and requests. I beg you madame, let me seek your counsel so that I may be better fit as a member of high society.
Eternally Gratefully Yours,
Mademoiselle Elliott
...
Miss Elliott,
Well then, that's better.
Mildred
