a mutual friend, who also lived in

The letter in question was sent back
to the lady, who naturally examined
it infinitely. To her surprise shefound
that another letter had become close

ed the address on the one which was
stuck to her own. 1t was q letter
addressed TO the friend to whom she
had wished to write, and to discover
whose whereabouts her own letter had
been dispatched. Her letter thus lit
