My dear brother,
I am very happy that I got your letter yesterday, I am going to write something about our village to lure you to come visit here. I am sure you will enjoy very much if you come. Our village is small but very charming. Our village is not as crowded town in which you live. You will have here fresh vegetables and pure milk in enough quantity. But the thing you will enjoy most in our village is beautiful natural scenery. There is a small river close to our village. The river flows with its own sweet will. It adds to the beauty of our village. I am sure you will be charmed with the calm and quiet atmosphere here.
I once again ask you to come. Do please come and stay with us for a few days and enjoy. No more today.
With much love,
Affectionately yours,
