_A Gentleman's Servant, applying for a Situation._
Praetland Terrace, March 1st, 187--
"_Valet Wanted._"
SIR,
In reply to an advertis.e.m.e.nt in yesterday's _Daily Telegraph_, headed as above, I beg to offer myself for the situation.
For six years and a half I lived with the late General Aslett in that capacity; on his death the establishment was reduced, and I received my dismissal.
I enclose a copy of my character from my previous masters, and also one from the proprietor of the Great Northern Hotel, who has known me for many years. I am unmarried, 5ft. 10in. in height, and twenty-eight years of age.
I remain, Sir,
Your most obedient humble servant,
JAMES FIELD.
_From a Coachman, requiring a place._
Croydon, October 2nd.
SIR,
Having heard that you are in want of a coachman, I respectfully beg to offer myself for the situation.
I have lived in my last place with J. G----, Esq., who will, I am sure give me a good character.
I remain, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
JOHN JAMES.
_Reply._
Beech Park, October 4th.
JOHN JAMES,
I have received your application for my coachman's place, and should be glad to know of how many horses you had the care at Mr. ----'s; whether you had a groom under you; and if you can drive in London as well as in the country.
Let me know also if you are a married man, and, if so, whether you have a family.
