I'd better buy it myself, or you might not get the right kind, so you might send the money in a postal order by return.

You get the postal orders at the nearest postoffice, and inclose them in a letter.

I want the football at once.

(1) Not a book of any kind whatever; (2) a football, but I'll buy it myself; (3) price 7s.
6d.; (4) send postal order.

_November 29th._ DEAR UNCLE:--Kindly inform William John that I am in receipt of his favor of yesterday prox., and also your message, saying am I sure it is a football I want.

I have to inform you that I have changed my mind and think I'll stick to a book (or two books according to price), after all.
