sire for a wife. Now comes my
story. Several months ago / re-
ceived a postal from young lady
residing in, another city. stating
that she, while working in s-store.
had found my name and. address In
pocketbook and taking a chance
thought she would write to me. ]
cordially reciprocated and wrote
her a letter also explaining that
was at a loss to explain how my
