A very dear friend of mamma's sent YOUNG PEOPLE to me as a
Christmas present. I enjoy the stories so much! and am now very
much interested in "Mr. Stubbs's Brother." I think the pictures
lovely. I am saving every number carefully. Mamma intends having
them bound. I see the little girls have been writing about their
pets. We have a German canary; he sings by lamp-light. His name is
Paul Pry. I am a minister's daughter, and live in the beautiful
Valley of Virginia. This is my first attempt at letter-writing. I
am ten years old, and would love to see my letter in Our
Post-office Box.
