cket, and trust to your generosity. Here the pretty fellow
ceased. "And you shall find," said I, "I will endeavour to deserve
that trust, by making you as happy as I possibly can."

Now, my dear Anne, I presume it will be unnecessary for me to
inform you, that the foregoing history is only an imaginary one
of my own invention; but such as we may suppose a squirrel might
relate, if he were endowed with reason and speech. Your good sense
will suggest to you that the amiable characters herein depicted
are meant as examples for imitation; and that the conduct of the
vicious is to be disapproved of and avoided.
I remain your affectionate friend,
R. S. S.
