THE AMEHICAX Fotin. SETTEE WRITEIl. 31 LET TER XXVII. From a ■ Young Lady to a Beautiful Young Gentleman. Sib— Pabbox my boldness for presuming1 to intrude on your time or business in writing to you this letter, as I am fully persuaded that x ou are busy in worldly affairs; but in writing to von, 1 do not write as a suppliant, but as young lady who entertains the highest esteem for your person and qualifications; it is these, Hid not an inordinate passion that induces me io write. I have frequently seen you, and cannot help admiring your comely person, to getherwith your admirable good cnaracter which any young lady cannot help falling in love with you, as unfortunately, 1 few 1 have already. It may be urged by you, that I am rather too forward in writing to a young man 1 am unacquainted with; but when you feel the same way as I do, then you may not think it amiss—at the same time, hoping this letter may find a favourable refeption, 1 remain with impatience for an answer which will console her who feels the most sincere affection, Ike. ELIKA GRAY.
