18 WEST 29TH ST., NEW YORK, 20th July 1892. } Mr. Thomas Jones regrets exceedingly that the numerous applications for kindred purposes near home render it impossible for him to comply with the request contained in Mr. [or Mrs.]'s letter of the 18th November. A Friend in the Country Asking a City Friend About Board. HOSH COSH, VA., Nov. 24, 1892.

DEAR BURCHARD-In a few days I will have occasion to visit Jersey City, and, being a comparative stranger, I wish to be as near the business center as possible, though located in a private boarding house, as I have a strong aversion to hotel life. My object in writing is to ask you to recommend me to some private boardinghouse, and to engage rooms in advance of my arrival, so that I may proceed thither at once on landing from the cars. Leaving the selection entirely to yourself, and hoping to hear from you soon, I remain Yours faithfully, Application for a Loan.
