Your paper is very interesting and helpful in Geography.  All my
family are interested in the great Round world,
especially my father.

Will you please tell me if General Maceo is dead or not?  We got
so many different stories it is hard to tell which is true.  Or
if General Rivera is to be put to death?

I live in New Haven; it is a beautiful city, full of elm trees,
with parks.  Also Yale College, from which Nathan Hale and Samuel
Morse graduated.

                                    Your Reader,
                                        John C.
    New Haven, Conn.

P.S.—­I am glad that you don’t publish prize-fights.  It is the
nature of animals, not human beings.

DEAR JOHN: 

There is no longer any doubt that General Maceo was killed.  The stories that he was still alive were probably made up by the Cubans, for fear their countrymen might lose heart if they knew the truth.

You will see in this number of your paper that General Rivera is not to be shot, according to the present reports.  Editor.

Dear editor

I enjoy the great Round world immensely, and look forward to its coming every week.  I like to read about Greece and Cuba, and if I were Grecian I would gladly join in the war.  I hope Greece will win, for I pity the poor Cretans under the cruel rule of Turkey.  Wishing your paper many years of success, I am,

Your friend and reader,

DEAR HAROLD: 

Many thanks for your pretty letter.  Write to us again soon. 
          
                                    Editor.

Dear Mr. Editor

I want to ask you about the Cometa.  Did the Admiral ever bring
her into the Havana harbor as he boasted that he would, with
flags flying on her?

Do you think Cuba is going to win?  I hope that she will.

Are the Americans going to help them?—­and then I know the
Cubans will win.  Yours truly,

My Dear Sydney

The Spanish Admiral has never brought the Cometa into Havana harbor.  He was just spinning a sailor’s yarn, apparently.

We hope that Cuba will win her freedom, and it seems very likely that she will.

You will see in this number of the great Round world that there is a chance that the President will try to settle the troubles between Cuba and Spain.

Editor.

Dear editor
