DEAR CHARLIE,--Can you possibly turn out for us on Thursday next _v_.
Paddlewick? We lost to them rather heavily in May last and are anxious
to give them a sound beating. Their fast bowler is playing for them
again, I hear, and we absolutely rely on your help. Can you get off for
the day?
Yours ever, P. R.
