We had three cold days last week, which brought back my cough and took away my voice.

At last I have caught sight of an advertisement of your book.

A very catching title, and if I mayn't compliment you upon it, I certainly do your publisher.

Write, and say how you are always when you write.

Say, too, how you continue to like your new house.
