_Mrs. Stirring to the Editor of “The Eastbury Herald.”_
SIR,--I fear you have not done your best to check the progress of your
slanderous paragraph, since only this morning I received the enclosed.
You will probably not be surprised to learn that through your efforts
the old-world paradise of Kildin, in which we had hoped to end our
days, has been rendered impossible. We could not settle in a new
neighbourhood with such an initial handicap.
Yours truly, AUGUSTA STIRRING.
