Application for Subscription to a Charity.

WYOMING, Nov. 18, 1892.

SIR or [MADAM] :-I take the liberty of enclosing a prospectus of an institution which is likely to have a most beneficial effect upon the poor in our neighborhood. [Here give particulars.] From your well-known liberality, I trust you will excuse this appeal from a stranger in furtherance of an act of benevolence, and remain, Sir [or Madam], Declining.

Your most obedient servant,
